Wishing that I had my Duck Wings on, my big painted Bill and my great big Galoshes out there with them, but I am not sure that They would like that
It starts terribly dark and it stays quite dim,
but the light available does get eke a way in.
There’s a wee trickle of goodly bird noise
and my voice hopefully discreetly deploys
a sound stratagem whisper friendly poised
so that the extremely fine feathered now gathered wild wonders
within their reed, sedge and slightly muddy safe splendid slumbers
and
my wondrous hide joining and together enjoying bonded
pleasance
continue heedless of my film embracing photographic
personal presence
