Sun Bird

Kieron

With flaming wings, which span the sky,

she glides across the sea.

A shrinking continental perch

vibrates away the heat.

 

Some seedlings, nestling in a tray,

sense Mum within their leaves,

which gape on stretching necks and make

a mute cacophony.

 

An all-important face appears:

at last! The sun returns!

She feeds her hungry brood of shoots

with incandescent worms.
