A rook corby crossing the line...

the Corbyhawk is taking some time off- be well my dears....until we meet again

Angry snowy egret

because the Corbyhawk will be offline for a bit!

Migration

I miss him I really do
my muse
I had such fun dreaming, he is the best
and I hope to gain the rare prize
of earning his friendship and love
Here is to you-generator of poems, of paintings,
of laughter and steady reason in rough times
I am not here to take
just to be.

you give energy to what you believe to be
I have to remember that and try to be hopeful even though I feel that all hope is lost
you create what you believe to be
I have to create joy out of saddness
I have to go on even though I want to turn back

pup

And we're sad because we think we don't belong here
We're guilty 'cause we think we should be stars
Floating in a navy soup, we're sailing
There you are
There you are
He's so bright
And then he's gone

Don't mind me
I'm just sailing
On a sunrise
It's my favourite thing
And when are you
Going to realize
I don't blame you
I never have

From Universe by Sarah Slean

Black-Footed Albatross

And a good south wind sprung up behind ;
The Albatross did follow,
And every day, for food or play,
Came to the mariner's hollo !

In mist or cloud, on mast or shroud,
It perched for vespers nine ;
Whiles all the night, through fog-smoke white,
Glimmered the white Moon-shine.'

-Samuel Taylor Coleridge Rime of the Ancient Mariner

albatross chicks are affected by the large amount of our plastic crap that ends up in the ocean, and I am going to see what I can do about limiting my plastic crap output. Read about it here

no return

Since I lost you I am silence-haunted,
Sounds wave their little wings
A moment, then in weariness settle
On the flood that soundless swings.

-From Silence by D.H. Lawrence
