Rook Moves In

grey squirrel busily buries acorns keenly observed by shrewd ravenous rook. rook swoops in, pillaging hidden treasures, jewels shattered on roof tops; oak tree groans. 15.10.20 'Double Tetractys 4' Poetry Contest Sponsor : Eve Roper

Counting stars in the Milky Way is akin to counting little acorns that grow! Aloha! Rico
