Great Grey Heron of Blue
(Andy Buwalda)
Grave, strong, noble and blue,
Soft rain, marshland and dew.
Riverbank’s edge, he lands,
A ghostly stalk, he stands.
Blue-grey, hooded and hunched,
An old man, bent and bunched.
Staring, silent and still,
Like steel, ready to kill.
The great, grey heron of blue.
