fork-tailed azure crown 
breed wolfs down trumpet creepers
they dive bomb red kites


Date created : 17 August 2020
 
NB
Trumpet vine / creepers nectar source for voracious bird.
Dive bomb as in bluff for deterring other species.

Strokes after midnight
received a distant sad news
a swallow has flown

Watch over us dear
I kept my prayers for you
frosted in flowers

Flaming shperiods descend
As the clouds swirl frenziedly
Uprooting erections

The seas withdraw then rise
To swallow the earth
As death enters

The grounds depart
To sail the seas
As ember paints the skies

Goldfinch pair visit
birdbath seeking cool water....
water way too deep

male Goldfinch inches
down Willow Tree limb to bath...
fear enters halts plan

male Nuthatcher drinks
water from swallow birdbath...
Goldfinch pair learn fast

the barn swallow swoops
onto a large hay bale
startling the owl

Merciless in its hunger
wave after wave it feeds
with nothing too big for its swallow

To what may I most worthily compare
The tinier, fatter fingers of this newborn?
To breathe of softness his delicate fingers
Which by one definition one is able
To swallow one by one like cherry-flower snow!

THE  SUMMER  SWALLOW

SCISSORS  THRO  THE  MORNING  AIR  .

CUTTING  QUITE  A  DASH  .

Rivers  dream by summer's end
first spongy mists swallow the valleys
leaves show  their colour beauty

the bewitching hour--
silence hangs heavy like fog
claw prints on window

mist seeping through cracks
swallow soft comforting warmth
bedroom sealed--entombed

       Blue Jay Chill


Snow covers blue jay 

Swallow winters up, ice forms 
 
Both merge, beneath, cold

Barnyard Swallow Mom
Ceiling-Fan, nest site, mud, moss
Chirps, babies, mouths, work

swallow what u seek
                                     walked to watch u reach their
astinden thin air

Fall into beauty
it won't swallow you up long
just til you are whole...

Hollering my pain
Swallow me, blackness, swallow!
Rid me of wronging!

That I do tonight
My lone witness a guitar
Watch me weep the sea

Just a dark stool I'see
Now not even me to bear
As steps sound my leave

innocent victim
jumping to swallow the bait~
I scrape away scales

Stupendous, sublime,
seeing star-sprinkled skylight–
Swallow stardust sight.

True love begins in a dark paradise
	Filled with graffiti
And Diet Coke,
Wearing a Three Dimension sunglasses
	Against the white screen
Swallow popcorn in a summertime
	Stormy rain.

Cherries in a bowl
cavort  with one another
stops when I swallow

Whilst the sun goes down
A lone swallow honours her
As it dips it's wings

Killing jar of mine
Suffer the bunnies and mice
Swallow whole its prey
My albino boa on this day
Killing jar of mine
Suffer the birdies and frogs
Swallow whole its prey
My albino boa on this day 

Blue bird flying high

Catching flies with open beak

Migrate natures way.

mud daubing swallow
nesting on ceiling fan blade....
electrical switch

baby swallows hatch
hatchlings' downy feathers soft....
kitchen window soiled 

   munching with my mate
   buxom burgundy berries
   autumn pigeon date



( I have a red guava tree which the wood pigeons love, eating 30 berries in one go - just swallow after swallow. Usually leave all fruit for them.)

sparrows, sparrows amidst the shadow
singing sweetly in voices so shallow
saintly summer's friend: the swallow

a swallow breath whole
heart beats with each passion beat
sweet gentle and slow

mammals with large brains
typically reflect on life
chiefly when dying

whales swallow plastics
pounds of internal ulcers
chiefly they're dying

humans suicide
whales beach and with ships collide
chiefly they're extinct


stan sand

swallow on the wing
soaring over the skyline
a summer evening

the sea can lie calm
or thrash about with fervor
then swallow the sun

Ill will, bitter pill
It's poisonous to swallow
It causes indigestion

Snakes are meat-eaters,

fangs, swallow food, no eyelids

smells with tongue, scaley.

the sea can lie calm
or thrash about with fervor
then swallow the sun

successive, bitter
the beginnings of winter
couple of swallows
~
leaving their nesting’s
flying further south for warmth
leaving bitter colds
