like drab and tired feathers
and an old beaten hat
like a drooping crest.

Barnyard birds of routine,
low horizons, chicken wire souls.
We peck at what’s given us.

tomorrow and catch the sun
in the drop at the end
of the drain-pipe?

for a change and ask foxes
to dance their tangos
and wild tarantellas?

with phoenixes
and steal thunder
from the peacocks.

and emerald plumage,
in scarlet and tangerine
and pinions of azure and silver.

go here Then we’ll be kings and queens
among daisies and irises,
in poppy-fields and thyme-gardens,
through the bluebells
and even among the roses!

of life in the air,
life among flowers,
life even in the barnyards
and the crates off to market.

these beautiful clothes.

  5. Wonderful poem and photo. I’ve never been this close to a peacock, and the tiny curly feathers are such a surprise, especially since one always concentrates on their tail plumage.
