the merlin hawk mesmorized me
as he flew and perched upon a tree
his size his strength and worm wood rue
i stood in regard with envious eyes
in a time honoured place
the rumour did say
he hunted his prey
and a mischief maker snake in the grass
wriggled about and worked his way past
still mesmorised i closed my eyes
a fragrant bouquet blew my way
swirling up and all around
i thought here i'll never be found
so i plucked a few flowers to remember those hours
the zippy dragonflies whizzed and hoverred
and there was me my reflection in the water
i was part of this little order....................Kennybhoy1
