#NaPoWriMo Day 30

 #NaPoWriMo Day 30 

A palinode poem, retracting a view expressed in an earlier poem. 


Not the Crow


No! I am not the crow

I will not eat those worms

I prefer to lift them gently from the path 

I will be a different bird

One with feathers of light and a quiet song of peace

I will sing my song from high treetops to the empty open air

Singing for the joy of singing

Flying over sunlit fields.
