Sparks, that flare from flowers, flame

Fires ignite, in this realm of shame

Incantations, watch the petals burn

Enchantment gone, forever spurned

Desire, explodes, like fireworks

Shattering, quickly, as a demon smirks

Fearing the dark, no light where you stand

You slip, ever slowly, into evil’s command

The sweetest of songs

Sung high above the treetops

A towhee’s calling

In the whispers of night, through the howling wind, voices from those passed, invade my world. Chattering amongst themselves, they show no regard for this eavesdropper, who stands smack in the middle of them. Perhaps they do not know I am there. Or perhaps they just don’t care. Listening carefully, I relish their presence. I do not quite understand what they are saying, but I devour every last sound. A gentle tap on my shoulder, a soft whisper in my ear, and I am taken in as one of their own. It was only then I realized, I already was.

Scroll down to see all these beauties.  In the last photo, the bird being shy kept flying onto my purse.  I think he was trying to make an escape   🙂

All photo were taken at the Aviary Exhibition at the Turtle Back Zoo in West Orange, NJ.
