A Subset of Morning
1
Bluejay morning –
Sky feather blue with wispy white clouds-
A raucous song for the days start
2
Bluebird morning-
Sky feather blue with blush of red sun-
A flight of song to greet the day
3
Cardinal morning-
Sky feather red against black clouds-
Flash of brilliant song sparks the day
4
Mourning dove morning-
Sky feather gray with soft deep fog-
A cooing lament to start the quiet day
5
Red tailed hawk morning-
Sky feather fast with rough rouged clouds
A sharp piercing cry to open the day
6
Goldfinch morning-
Sky feather yellow with clouds molten gold-
A charmed song to start the day
