Sounds Off-Spring

the red kite whistles to it's mate soaring above.. from their nest of love chatter in the sky northwards,in neat formation migrating geese fly a magpie arrives.. the starling's melody dies- soundlessly death cries just one flap of wings- the sparrow-hawk makes its kill pouncing down at will

Tennyson spoke of it ...as nature red in tooth and claw ... you write of it ... a divine majestic law. Awesome
