a heron stands tall
at the branch’s end,
as if weightless.

a heron stands tall
at the branch’s end,
as if weightless.

frenzied pigeons:
a tight, geometric horde—
until food’s end.

a perched heron
watches ripples of its
last attempt fade.

on a barren branch
a raven has perched —-
autumn dusk

a cloud of pigeons
wheels about in a broad loop;
a thin batch returns.
