Premium Member Dawn Chirps a Melody

   Dawn chirps a melody
     Birds of promise beckon me
   High-fliers inspire emulators
     to flap our wings, become creators

   Ahead lies adventure
     sunlight, the perfect mentor
   In my pinions, the day awaits
     rise and shine, tempt the fates

My Crumpled Wings

My crumpled wings 
Quiver as pinions tremble
Bandaged by your balm
Brokenness shed to soar at dawn

Heavy Pinions

I feel like a rusty key
that cant open any door
You waylaid my cloudy kingdom
Your butter knife
cut through my land

Through a secret glade
between the hope and dust
I detest what I've become
I painted my dreams
and waited to see
This sloth what I've become
is driven by a hearse
amongst the heavy pinions

Premium Member The Grief of Crows

Soaring above the bushfire's flames,
astounded crows, blacker than charred
tree trunks, flap spectral wings.

Numb with loss, no caws drone out.
Wind rushes in updrafts from
the smoky heat: to rise as a vengeful spirit,
to hammer at fleeing pinions,
to witness aimless circles above coal black trees,
now absent of rough stick nests.


Suzanne Delaney


Afterglow Is the Best of Lights

Some flower in the twilight,
the dark does not assault them
they succumb upon a dusky breath.

How unlike is the glaring light?
How it enslaves and pinions
each stem with a fiery eye.

Love mesmerized
yearns for the dark coverlets,
the secrecy of eventides.

Those brief nocturnal shallows
can hide a sorrow,
make you smile like the last rays
of a dying sun.

Premium Member Seventeen Feathers

with apologies to Poe and Baum

Seventeen feathers*
          is all that I need
to become a raven
          instead of a crow.

A raven is majestic,
          a crow just a crow~

they invade the cornfield
          just to spite the scarecrow,
who cries out in despair:
          it's a murder I fear,

please have a heart!

* The large primary flight feathers on the wing are called pinions;  Ravens have 17 pinions  while Crows have 16.
