"merganser" poems - Hello Poetry

Mirrored silver tag me blue reflective sky widgeon, merganser blithely sail broken ripples foretelling storm raucous cawing crows assemble anxious ducks explode airborne duly warned silent drone fateful wraith Eagle glides over the settling surface razor eyes seeking the meek the weak fleeing flock coalesces white bellies exposed to the sun banking hard return to serenity certain death deferred in nature alliances are clear predator prey vigilantly warning relentlessly defending Shrieking crow-beleaguered Eagle retreats no match for those united against him

Flock

Mirrored silver tag me blue reflective sky widgeon, merganser blithely sail broken ripples foretelling storm raucous cawing crows assemble anxious ducks explode airborne duly warned silent drone fateful wraith Eagle glides over the settling surface razor eyes seeking the meek the weak fleeing flock coalesces white bellies exposed to the sun banking hard return to serenity certain death deferred in nature alliances are clear predator prey vigilantly warning relentlessly defending Shrieking crow-beleaguered Eagle retreats no match for those united against him

Glacier National Park, Lower Quartz Lake Wednesday August 12, 2015 Day 1 of the backpacking trek. Our tent next to the still waters. Eventide respite. Deborah reflecting in solitude at sunset. Quiet with a gentle breath of mountain air. Without an updraft to soar and glide upon, the eagle, nesting in the range of the watershed, has retired for the day. A pair of Common Loons and four Hooded Merganser prepare for the nights cooling, moving in the glossy water toward their rest, gentle lines tracing as the water crests and falls behind. Black swifts emerge from the shadows, dancing near the lake to feed on twilight insects. The orange sky and red orb of Sol are a prelude to a multitude of stars as the world turns into darkness.
