Proud and black ( The Crow )
Every day at four
rain, sun, the same.
Black,proud, alone.
beside a killer road.
Black, proud, alone.
shiny coat, the best
a beak can preen
rain, sun the same.
Black proud, alone.
Every day at four,
beside the road
which takes its toll.
Black, proud,alone.
road-kill for tea,
none share the road
which takes its toll . . . .
rain, sun, the same.
Black,proud, alone.
beside a killer road.
Black, proud, alone.
shiny coat, the best
a beak can preen
rain, sun the same.
Black proud, alone.
Every day at four,
beside the road
which takes its toll.
Black, proud,alone.
road-kill for tea,
none share the road
which takes its toll . . . .

Crows pair for life.For sometime two crows patrolled the grass verges.Then there was one.gleaning road kill for tea.Then there was none.It did its best.I do not see crows anymore along my way home.Sad.
