Premium Member The Calling Gull Of Aquinnah
The calling gull leaves her nest her wild magic cleaves the nimbus. An avian aerialist suspended aloft she sails on tapered ribbons of cirrus silk, ruffled sea breeze ironed ‘neath her lustrous wings. A wind witch, she defies and defines the w - i - n - d… a weaver of worlds, knotting strings of stories as one wampum...

Premium Member The Hungry Gull
My feathers are misted and moistened from the sea spray As I glide above the busy shore on Frenchman’s Bay The sunrise displaying beautiful pinkish and purple hues While the tide is out, no fish and the crustaceans are few I soar above the boats all docked along the shore While searching for a safe landing and food to score Spotting...

Premium Member Everybody Needs a Fine Dining Experience
Shadows amid the waves bird-eye targets, besties gather for a fine dining experience; aqua splits to pierce of bill. Fueling up the old pouch, a winging pelican riding sea breeze to sustenance; all hook-billed and needing no bait. Just a hop, skip-skim across to side-dish; let’s have a herring and mullet casserole! Throat-sack wiggles, jiggles, down the hatch, then it’s back to the nest for cocktails and...

Last days of summer Autumn's presence felt The sea retains some heat Hardy souls take the plunge While gulls skim and surf Riding on waves that swell A curious seal watches Alien species enjoying Freedom from the land. Image by Natalia_Kollegrova Pixabay...

Premium Member And a White Gull Glides
the sky is a hazy blue sea today and a breeze touches the tree tops and they sway like emerald waves oh, there is a perfect silence ... though hidden birds chatter and twitter and my flowers tremble while others are ... perfectly still and my hanging ivy is creeping and twining and somewhere a wind chime pings once and a...

Premium Member Sea Gull
If, I were a seagull; The wind would tickle And lift my fine feathers. I would extend my wings, Bend my knees, Leap up into the air Flapping my wings Taking off and fly, Feeling the favorable Brisk briny breeze filled sea. Glide and vanish into the broad sky. I'd fly among the shadows of the clouds, Embrace in natural warmth Of heavenly sunshine, Overlooking uninterrupted view Above and among...

Premium Member Sea Gull At Twilight
I’m soaring through a sunset – violet as sun drips into water cobalt blue. How peaceful is this twilight time. I let my eyes take in the total gorgeous view. My mates fly with me. Beachcombers we spy! We squawk and squeal and circle with delight. Then down to where the humans are we fly. We need to look around while there’s...

Premium Member Discourse Poem, the Dream
I Discourse Poem, The DREAM The dream came before dawn Longer ago than I dare to date. Within it, I trudged along The forever-length of a deserted Beach, having only the hope of Sighting a pier with its over-swooping Gull. I kept on the heavy walk in the dry, Poor, foot-denying sand — with More sliding down than stepping ahead. I wearied. I...

The Sea-Gull
The old sea-gull The old one-legged sea-gull sat on my roof near the chimney if felt the cold, scanning the sky. Once it had been the captain on the outer reef and fought many a battle to sit on his crown Someone took a shot at it, and it lost a leg, together with oncoming elderliness, it left its kingdom. Took refuge on...

Premium Member Gull Trouble
Like rowdy teens all running for a bus The gulls have seen the merest hint That someone threw a crust An unwanted scrap from Pret The bottom of a wrap or the final soggy Mouthful from a keytchup spattered bap Sending fifty feisty squabbling birds All rising in a screechy flap Just the first arrive in time to dive And wing...

Premium Member Herring Gull
I am known as a sky rat, or a beach thief, most call me a seagull and a nuisance. I love to fly across the ocean freely, soaring with my wings spread while darting into the water. I see a photographer, maybe I will be featured, instead I go unnoticed as whales are surfacing. My eyes are keen as I search...
