A Fright of Birds

[monk222]

~
After a nice doze, going out on the four-thirty rounds in the overcast and danky afternoon, all is quiet and still as can be, then suddenly a fright of birds break out from the nearby trees in a shriek, practically blackening the skies as they zig-zag above, until they finally settle back again.

Monk now sees the birds perched quietly anew in the trees, as still as can be, as though they are so many Christmas decorations.

One is fancying that a little poem by e. e. monk might be had in this. It could be called "Panic," seeming like a wonderful metaphor for such an emotional attack.

e. e. monk might do well with poetry if he makes observations like that. I like. :)

You are too generous. That is perhaps as clever as it gets, and that comes seldom enough.

Thanks!

No need to be sad, babe. I'm so glad you thought of me, lol.

I guess I'm a real postive influence on your life, heh.

Thanks! But I think it's the rarity that makes it tolerable, heh.
