Five Fat Crows

flew from the road as I approached.
two flew on ahead,

while two more surrounded another
with wings tipped with white.

as if it were an elder
needing help staying aloft,

or merely flew too close to a cloud,
and now forever flies with a touch

of rain upon its wings.

Daniel - Enjoyed " Five Black Crows." Excellent imagery. I also liked the myth you created with the last lines,

"or merely flew too close to a cloud,
and now forever flies with a touch

of rain upon its wings." - David

I love this, Daniel. The personification fits here, somehow, within the human element of consideration and thoughtfulness.
Well done.
Love,
CJ

Gilded imagery...and much appreciated by me...who has a yard full of tame crows to feed, every morning, for the last five years.
