Oh thank you Demetrios! A lovely thing to say, as I do so often write with weighty metaphor, I had not considered this piece thus ;) A splendid day to you my friend! xomo <3

Oh I'm thrilled you love this one my friend! As you know birds occupy much of my mind, the falcons in particular I find 'perfect' in design. Too, most of my haiku are about birds, I couldn't bring myself to be judged in the new bird haiku contest. You made my day Robert, Thank You! Hugs :) xomo!

Sweet! Since I quit biking I haven't been downtown much, but I used to keep tabs on a pair nesting on a high rise hotel. Even got to see them mate once! Blink and you miss it ;) Thank you SO :) xomo!
