SYNCHRONIZED STARLINGS~by Jonathan Caswell

 

 

SYNCHRONIZED STARLINGS

Taking to flight as one,

As fish in schools have done…

Turning each way

As a ballet,

Changing in shape on the run!

–

An amorphous mass like amoeba,

Dancing midair—can you see the…

Foresight needed

That each move be needed,

Created a wonderful achievement!

–

Soon they will fly south,

Traveling hand-to-mouth…

In corporate flight

Resting at night,

Until Springtime shouts!
