Waiting

Invisible to the eyes
Waiting bird cries
Nestled green and brown
Mommy shot down

Congrats on your placement. Some birds mate for life and they show it in their relationship to each other and they care for their young so lovingly. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

Indeed! Though invisible, the suffering is real and unfortunately, will continue unless a drastic change in perspective occurs. Congratulations, Frances, on your wonderful win in Brian's contest.. ~Susan

Intent of poem: Flash a light on extent of hidden suffering caused by violence before cruelty of brother against brother breaks out.
