a Streak of Red

Silvan black
Come the grackles
Shimmering blue streaks
Darting toward the sound
Of bird song glee

Bullies
In Zorro garb
Storm the bird feeder
Black darts
Flung at swaying targets
Challenging
The squirrels reign.

Sparrows 
Root for the stalking cat
To strike
Leap high
A streak of red
Upon the sylvan black
