Verdigris on bronze,
a hero that the pigeons claim,
Lost beneath the white.

Photograph of a heron taking flight. Text overlayed on photograph reads: not a flight does not life a wary body. Top left text reads Night Out. Bottom right text reads Andrea Small (C)

Andrea Small's 'Night Out' puts into language the inertia of a freeze response experienced by a girl under threat during a night out.

Up high, dark wings carve
Summer skies with #keening calls,
Life in the wind.

Loud cries from the cliff,
A million tuxedo birds,
Yet not one wears a tie?

Haiku - 'The Singing Birds'

I hear birds singing
a deafening melody
their message unheard

Shore larks dive,
Beginning their bold display,
The owl watches.

remembering an autumn night walk with someone in a city we both found new

owl shadow sweeps low
broadwing gone as quickly as
we become aware
gone yet still surrounding us
wings leaves stars here where we are
