A shaggy crest.
The world fades to gold.

Where buzzing helpers flutter by.
With happy hues of yellow flame,
The sunny coneflower speaks its name.

Legs planted firm in the cool, clear water,
A study in grey feathers and sharp focus.
Sunlight dances on the ripples,
As life and hunger briefly intertwine.

Stones wet and smooth

Life watching the river's song

Stillness breaks, the air moves,
a great heron rises
from the quiet pond.
Wings beat slow, strong,
leaving the placid surface
to silent flight.

A sparrow in the snow,
With stripes of tan and white.
He hops and scratches with both feet,
To find a tasty winter treat.

The wide pond, a sheet of white.
Ice holds the silent cold.
Dark trees line the frozen shore,
A small house watches the quiet afternoon.
Winter’s breath, still and deep.

In marshy ground, where grasses tall reside,
A sandhill crane, with crimson patch of hide.
Its feathers gray, a graceful, ancient sight,
Captured forever in the tranquil light.

Where forest silence speaks loudest.
