flap
... flap
flap your wings
flying in a line,
like a ribbon or a string
pelicans
pelicans
on a south bound wind
weaving
and weaving
a white bird trail
they tickle the sky
with their feathers out wide
pelicans
pelicans
that flap, flap and fly
buoyant in air
as they are in the water
pelicans
pelicans
going where the air is warmer
flap
...flap
flap away
the pelicans
the pelicans
of Pelican Bay

Anonymousover 17 years agomentioned in New Poems Reviews. I liked the image of pelicans tickling the sky, though I felt the repetition of Pelicans was a bit heavy. It's fun to say, though. I think my students would like it. :-)
Anonymousover 17 years agohave seen that pic on my blog of those hungry pelicans and the september mullet run....its incredible the huge amout of pelicans fluttering in the wind diving and scooping fish...the sound is almost deafening...nice images art..kisses...blue
KOLKOREover 17 years agoNow I understand! Every time you raise your head upward for inspiration, I am up for a good experience, reading one of your ‘celestial poems’! Got it! I can live with that.
Seriously, I loved the humor, the use of sound in the language, and did I detect an effort to simulate a structure of flying birds in the layout of the stanzas?
Bravo!
