fledgling falters
feathers flying

The poet’s
Picture lyrics
Slip from the tongue
To pen,
Greening the soul
And feeding the
Fledgling efforts
Of the muse....

fledgling opens palm to clutch
the mentor’s handshake

Listen to poem:

Fledgling child unclasps
Turns and flees,
Away unhitched.
Blatant rebel, free
Rejects parents as uncool,
But as an adult, reunites....

Cupped white, dusky pink. 
Satin gills softly breathing,
Catalyst of spring.
Pert, prayerful votive lights
Opening like fledgling beaks...

        fledgling...a comedy of errors
             incidental....accidental
    awkward,as we clumsily stumble...

fledgling, callow
generation rising, aging, accepting
cars, jobs, regrets, pains
secluding, denying, resenting
tolerating, unaccepting
adulthood...

Radiant sunset covers
Shafts of dimming colors
Awe of daylight jewels
Light beclouding visuals
A sight stunner of purity 
In belly of fledgling piety...

Delight...
First flight

From nest
Tries best

Hits tree
Dear me!

Bent beak
Loud squeak

dead in the ocean with a broken neck ~ a fledgling chick hits the deck 

dragged down below the waves ~ can angelfish fathom a watery grave

fledgling
led me on a
cat and mouse
through the trees
and to his house
there
by the moonlight
gave me a nightcap
for Christmas
and bade me
goodnight....

Fledgling birds cry out
From their refuge on the ground --
Feline hunter stalks

In most things a fledgling
to some degree
A novice at love
and what’s not to be
Indentured forever
beyond my leave
And only an expert
—at being me

I remember snowdrops
in the fledgling spring,
in the veins of sleet
where the mill torrent raged.
How bejewelled cobwebs
to the reeds would cling,
and how all but that memory
has aged......

Bright
shines spring's
fledgling sun.
New blooms praise her,
inspiring élan.
Now effusive,
she conquers
winter's
dun.

weed covers the pond-
a crested grebe
dives for treasure

a puffed up firecrest
alights upon
our smoke tree

a dawn delicacy-
the mistlethrush's
everyday grub

out of the nest-
the fledgling hopes
mother finds a worm...
