Wondering

Icing on cake not chocolate
Nor white but mixture_gray
Cool air flows over and around
Stirring air; porch breezeway

Crow lands in top of pecan tree
Upon a fragile limb
Another crow joins him_limb bends
Precarious crow whim

Second crow flies away saves face
First crow flies away soon
I wonder if they had pecan
Tart for breakfast or noon

Your first verse made me think of my hair, not chocolate now, but gray. I love the rest of your poem.
