Queensland Crow

if ya lived awhile in west Queensland, out in the red soil dust, where the crows will take your eyes out, and bore water is a must:( if ya saw a thin and starving cow, with not a blade of grass to eat, the summer sun, death will come, the crows are wanting meat:( thanks to Dan K Don

p.d. in outback Australia, If you lay down on the ground and stay still, you will soon have a big black bird coming closer, a few hops at a time, pudding is the windows of the soul, Joe Crow, shiny black, often stole, alas how it goes....

Perfectly dreary described write Don! Those crows are a darn nuisance aren't they? We have them out in our corn pastures trying to get at some food, corn! And the will be scores of them too! I know that's not your only point in your poem, but it's a fun one to discuss! You did well with all your points within your poem! Great Work!!
