Bird Brain

From heron in

To heron out

I watch you

As I focus

But it is bogus

To you

Intrusive

Illusive

You watch me

Fumble, fiddle

I am your riddle

If you could laugh

You would

All for a picture

Of a bird

Canada Geese

With weathered wings
They take flight
Oblivious to our gaze
Graceful glide
Pace and stride
Bellies rise
Above our eyes.

With weathered wings
They reach out to
Fellow feathered friends
Clumsily aligned
Directionally defined
Uplifting hearts
That long to fly

Canada geese departing from a dock on Lake Erie.
