Between Clouds and Water

Between clouds and water
an egret

freedom, grace and beauty
to my grateful eye
evil death and murder
to darting silver fry

Between clouds and water
an egret

sustenance and growth
for predators who wait
soars home again at sunset
to joyful chicks and mate

    I like the contrast of what the egret means to you and to the fish. And the rhythm of the repeated line is very nice. Thank you, Barb. xoA
