Take Out

A seagull scrounges
pokes through earth in search of lunch
grabs a morsel - leaves.

Hi, CArol, glad to hear the magnetic boards help you. I think I came up with a hundred poems by doing those kind. but we called them Buzz words. Someone would give us ten words and we would make a poem using the ten words. Many of my poems here came from the old Buzz word competitions at places like Shadowpoetry!
