The Vigilant Seagull

A seagull kept vigil on top of the church Defiantly braving the threatening sky. Transfixed and alone, on the sanctified perch As gargoyles looked on with malevolent eye. Defiantly braving the threatening sky His feathers assailed by the blustery gale, As gargoyles looked on with malevolent eye The sentry stood firm, his resolve did not fail. His feathers assailed by the blustery gale, Transfixed and alone on the sanctified perch, The sentry stood firm, his resolve did not fail. A seagull kept vigil on top of the church. 09.12.19
