Kim Rodrigues Poet Light Verse

The Hawk On the Bough

As seen from our front window.

The Hawk ON THE BOUGH

binoculars gawk
there’s a storm looming
the hawk returns to  h i s  bough
he’d flown out for lunch
he’s pecking off fur
and indulging in squirrel
he needs no raincheck
in  f o w l  weather he wings it
