I am deserted
lonely blackbird in the sky
a single feather
slides across my line of sight
a sign of impending change

Sad.
Thanks for this, Pam.
I am wondering where that feather came from….
Proudly, and finally, I have linked to your site. I know you will not disappoint.
Lovely poem… the feather of hope (or that’s what it means to me). Love your photo too. Your prompt has certainly birthed a good deal of intensity around the OSI community and pushed our creativity.
This was great! I felt drawn in by your words. Succinct and beautiful.
