Sunday Sonnet!

🎀

They glide in numbers on the evening air,
Cavorting soundlessly with maven grace,
Their wavelike moves attest to artful flair,
Such aptitude none other can replace;
These master mariners one needs to see
In flight, their splendour to appreciate,
Their rhythmic dance induces reverie,
The most disturbing thought forms to sedate;
Observing grand display from where I sit,
Reclining in a chair in garden, still,
A thought occurs to me, may I submit,
These denizens perform, my heart to thrill;
The most banal of nature’s spectacle
Is pregnant with potential miracle!

Sunday Sonnet!

Their squawking riles the residents around,
Aggressive when considered under threat,
Along the sea in Summer they abound,
Forcing a neighbour to protect her pet;
Fiercely protective of their fledgling young,
A cry for ‘Help’, receives a mass response;
Dive-bombing and a blanketing of dung,
Potential predator shall soon ensconce;
And yet, ’tis well they scavenge for their food,
Essential to keep Mother Nature clean,
For, though their presence many would occlude,
Much rather should environment be green.
For each a place in Nature is reserved
That Common Good be readily preserved!

At
Sunset,
Seagull soars
In clear blue sky,
Grace!

Sedoka for Seagull!

Gull afloat on high,
Riding thermals for pleasure,
Elegance on fair display;

Evening breeze stiffens,
Amblers button up jackets,
Master mariner prevails!

Foggy afternoon,
Dismal mood the neighbourhood,
Soulless street an eerie feel,

Black cat on the wall,
Seagull alights on rooftop,
Indoors a lonely dog barks!
