I can still hear your squawk in Westbury.<\/p>\n
So loud up high inside a tree.
\nDidn\u2019t keep my car windows open long<\/p>\n
for fear you\u2019d fly inside.<\/p>\n
I wonder why you shouted so much<\/p>\n
you seemed to be alone all the time.<\/p>\n
Alone inside that ever so large size of an evergreen tree.<\/p>\n
Your face so dark I couldn\u2019t see your eyes.<\/p>\n
You looked like a sign of death.<\/p>\n
A sign aimed at me I feared your every breath.<\/p>\n
It was your large size and stature that truly frightens me.
\nToo large to be a crow<\/p>\n
too small to be a hawk.<\/p>\n
A real raven is what I saw,<\/p>\n
glad summer school is over<\/p>\n
rid of you that\u2019s for sure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
