Flutter In the Trees

I hear birds

Fluttering

Flying in the trees

In rotation

Backwards

Forwards

I look up

It's my favourite bird

The Magpie

Fighting with a crow

                                  They give their battle cries                             Make the charge

Flutter flutter flutter

In the trees

To and fro

Backwards and forwards they go

Finally

The crow emerges

Bolts off wearing grudges

The magpie presents himself

Standing triumphantly

Feeling grander than an Elf

As I watch in silent admiration

I palpitate my circles of light and love
to embrace and engulf you true!
