Herons and Swans

Herons

Still heron, woven
Into the weft of the reeds
Designs on small fish

Long neck poised, beak sharp
Black-flecked greybeard ruffles breeze
Eyes pierce the stream's heart

In the flooded field
Looking glass lake reflects his
Elegant attire

Five Swans

Five grey swans fly low
Wings lift the cold, lead sky up
Over the Levels
