Crow In Love
A crow flew
Three feathers fell
One to the wind
One to the earth
And one straight down into hell
The trees turned to ice
Then into sand
The crow couldn't look
The crow couldn't breathe
The crow couldn't find where to land
This is the country of love, said the other birds
Make three chicks from the feathers that fall
One heart of ice
One heart of sand
And your favorite, with no heart at all
A crow flew
Her loneliness turned her black
Her wings turned to stone
So she couldn't fly on
And god knows, she couldn't go back.

Thanks for stopping by, C! Yes, I intend to post all my best ones here. Thank you for your kind words.
Crafty Green Poet, thank you for stopping to read and to comment. I have always loved fairy tales and fables, and in fact I collect volumes of fairy tales. So, it isn't surprising at all that I create my own from time to time.
Very cool! I didn't know that the crow was your totem.
