Paul Beadnall Poet Light Verse

The Kestrel Selene

Hovering silently above the sunkissed field
                                she stalks her prey, tail adjusting movement
                                 then swoops effortlessly towards the unconcealed
                                  
                                
                                      Field mouse has no idea, life`s about to sieze
                                        with eyes transfixed, claws outgasped
                                          she swoops down,not a breeze

                                              Her prey is caught,off back to her nest
                                                four newly born chicks await
                                                  because food,nutrition is what she does best
