Magician's cloak let go, And o'er sky they sang, Their deafening call did ring The birds flew as the leaves fell and the leaves blew like the birds flying- Nobody knowing where they came from and are going. The outcry pierced the sky, All species flocked as one Prepared for storm to come And they will not succumb!
I wrote this long ago after a strange experience of walking among hundreds of grounded birds for hours so in a way it's real.
