Oystercatcher
Red legs gingerly
Step from stone to
stone seeking
An oyster supper
Swallows on the
Medway High Tide
Oil-sheen blue feathers
Reflect in the full
blown glass
Skimming the high tide
In tight formation
Tail feather streamers
flash past
Six swallows sky dive
Black Headed Gulls
at Riverside (Medway)
Punctuating rocks
They string out along
the banks
Full stops for the tide
A sky boomerang
Returning on warm currents
Cuts
the wide river
