the chattering

pouncing down at will...

bittersweet vine
twist like pipe curls on a finger
blue birds sings

bird song arias
wake the sun-soaked cat napping
feathers fly

down laced twigs
incubate the Robin’s blue eggs
puss licks his whiskers

lofted sparrow hawk
warm basket of new born kittens
noon whistle...

The sparrow hawk is so near dear!
Shush, shush, or, he will surely hear.

Yes, yes, you are a rare beauty
with a fine voice, a real cutie. 

Enough tweeting, be silent please,
we’ve a nest full of babies, geez!
 
My sweet song bird, I’ll free your beak,
if you would only shush, don’t tweet!...

the red kite whistles
to it's mate soaring above..
from their nest of love

chatter in the sky
northwards,in neat formation
migrating geese fly

a magpie arrives..
the starling's melody dies-
soundlessly death cries

just one flap of wings-
the sparrow-hawk makes its kill
pouncing down at will...
