a sailing tailwind
in cerulean streams
through creamsicle colored beams -
are wings reflective of turquoise truth 
and white purity 
of Autumn’s ether -

he aviates 
a clear troposphere 
riding an unbridled
capricious and combative 
boreas
on the cusp
of a new...

Outside    the fall is deep and new
Tangled branches on the trees
Are bare    black    but drifted white

Survivors of the wintry night,
Birds are perched    by nature blended;
At intervals a few will fly.

A few will light...

perched on a high tree
a blue jay lookout screeches ~
swift bristling of crests


[when blue jays feed in peace, their crests are lowered, but
become raised when danger is sensed.]

Premium Member Beware the Mocking Jay
~ Monotetra form ~

No man's eyes will ever conceive
the things another mind may weave
If this counsel you don't believe
You are naïve    You are naïve

What lies behind a masked facade
is oft' unfit to praise and laud
Tread lightly when sipping pernod
Beware the fraud ...

Premium Member How Jay-Bird Got His Name
Young James Pruitt was an ordinary boy;
he grew up in an ordinary town.
But set a spell, and I’ll tell a tale
of how some not-so-ordinary things went down.

See, James was a good boy; he did his chores,
he went to church, and he walked to school.
Jacksons’ Gap...

Sittin On a Parkbench Waitin For Jethro Tull Or Jay-Z
I love a good rhythimic beat
I can imitate a drum with the pounding of my feet
Whether it's rock & roll or rap
A stadium amp or a backwards cap
Any type of music makes me get out of my seat...

has he gone away now

Sunset
Along the feathered edge,the red sun sets,
Birds go back to their home like jets.
Sunflower loses sight of sun,
Animals sing lullabye to their son.

Sunset makes the sky go pink,
Its the most beautiful sight you could ever think.
All the flowers close their petals,
It is as good as...
