Gulp: a Murder Conspiracy

Have you ever heard a crow caw in the dead of night
Never the thought crossed my mind until such was my plight
In the bright of the light I saw vast more than one
Nary my delight when their numbers sent me shook to stun
Pondered to run but when said and done everyone knows
That you don’t mess

Oh My Little Magpie

Oh dear, oh my, 
You poor little magpie, 
1 for sorrow is what is said, 
And here you sit solo twitching your head,
For where is your sweetheart 
Shouldn't you be together not apart
As the rhyme suggests
2 for joy is what comes next 
Oh my, oh yes  
A pair of magpies 
that's whats best
Sitting together

The Rider the Magpie and the Horse

Tears from the horse eyes are longer than a pane of glass
Tears from the horse eyes are  piercing the riders heart
He mounts the horse with courage and confidence
And leap a thousand meters towards the heavens
The mountains appears like giants in front of him
And forced him to ride above the wind
Knocking the weight of his

Magpie and Crow Thieves

Magpie and Crow Thieves
quarters disappear
dimes and nickels gone too
people are accused

magpie and crow laugh
their collection is growing
partners in crime

grandmother sleeps

Black-Billed Magpie

slyer than you seem

magpie 'tibicen'

your warbling delights

Oriental Magpie Robin

Oh Robin! I wish I could tell how much I love thee
Small fluffy and beautiful, you bestow much joy to me
Mesmerized I listen your melodic music whole day
Wagging your tail angrily, you drive predators away
Your cosy home, a hole in the trunk of flame tree
Amid flower's, wearing orange skirt, you bring glee

The Magpie

A solitary black figure
perches on a barred gateway,
surrounded by a softened blanket
of pearlescent white. Shadows
of color at play signal
a countryside alive in striking
impressions. The lowering afternoon
sun warms the winter sting,
surviving in the thievery of
the winged crusader in motion.
A musical interval marked in
the whispered silence of a
wintry snow covered landscape.

Ekphrasis On the Magpie By Monet

A lonesome magpie~
perching on a forlorn wooden stairs
on a snowcapped mountain side
spells serenity in the day light.

The barn house reflects
the pale lavender shadows~
a soft blend of chiaroscuro; 
The thickened snow in impasto 
reminds me of winter daydreams 
of my love so far away.

The hanging frosty pearls 
on dancing dainty twigs~
sparkling like chandeliers 
in ancient sanctuaries;
Like

Magpie Melody

A magpie sat on the branch watching me.
That was okay, no big deal, I thought.
His chattering started at a quarter to three.
By midnight headphones is what I sought.

By three a.m. my husband was looking for his gun.
I had given it away years ago to my Uncle’s son.
I said it’s not so bad, truly, we can

                as beautiful as can be

  but good grief...noisy!

Magpie Murder

Six magpies brought their mourning squawk,
soon joined by several others,
disturbing all their neighbour's talk 
and waking sleepy lovers.

Some hopped and did their swaggered strut 
between a felted flat roof top 
and a guttered water but. 
Some preferred a higher perch 
and troubled nearby taller tops of green leylandii.
 
All the while their squawk increased
and shattered
