a red robin alights,
soft feathers forgotten
on drying earth
a breeze stirs,
a tornado threatening
to reach apex
Original
A Redbird departs earth,
Stirring a longing breeze on which
innocent feathers drift;
Like bees to a succulent orchid.
The hummingbird migrates
Leaving in its wake, a Phoenix
born from the ashes of naivety.

I relish writing bad poems, if it means someday I'll write a good one.
