Counting Crows

by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen — Read all 1,670 poems by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen

Sunday, December 14, 2003

Those eyes, in the picture,
staged just left of center,
such innocence, unadorned, denied;
all in your eyes, linking you to me,
what a fantasy, to see a Crow.
But, I have, so proud and bold,
it was stealing pecans,
stealing the show
of my fabled emotions,
cleaned like a beak
of what is now me. I wrote of such,
a year ago. Counting Crows,
I do it well, as I dance in the night,
Adam, so pained, reverbs dark delight.
Poeming Crow, oh, yes,
I have done it well, in a series of ache,
penned within the musical hell
of my personally loved pain,
I’ve called them “Dancing to Adam”.
See, no shame, to dance to Crows.

I'll be dancing to crows tomorrow Erin when our Baltimore Ravens beat the crap out of the cleveland browns. haha. Thanks for the bird poem, I love crows, they're strong and they stay the hell off living on your house. those pigeons get on my nerves trying to make a home. There are thousands of crows in our area but you never see them try to make a home on your house. They raid your trash can and then they're gone back to the trees. cheers G

I counted crows as a youth, a winter road game. Now I'm counting on Cheryl Crowe not to let me down.

Erin, crows seem to have made a comeback of late, as when I was young I don't recall so many about...maybe cause I was living at the shore and there were so many gulls around...Peace, Ed & Rufuz

Ah yes! The most intelligent of all birds, ducking in traffic to steal a morsel, "stealing pecans" right under your nose. (or was it the musical group you so praise?) Thanks, Erin!
