A Silent Witness

This is for Poppy’s September challenge. Link up here!

Mystery. Intrigue. The negative. These are associations we typically form with the crow.

While we may not feel positive about this bird, it does remind us to tap into our innate goodness.How would we respond if we were this crow?

I perch atop your window sill,

Watching you go by

I see all things, your quirks and spills,

Your secrets and your lies

🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶

Your deceitful treachery

As you shatter a promise made

Horrendous debauchery

With her, he’s been betrayed

🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶

He was one your truest friend

With whom you had great trust

But he now sees you as a fiend

Owe that to your lust

🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶

My wings flapping as he shouts

His temper now unfolds

I thoroughly enjoy the bout

The secrets first untold

🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶

I watch with glee, caws unrestrained

As you defy with pride

The friendship lost, fault unexplained

Truth cannot be denied

🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶 🌑🪶

I perch atop your window sill

Watching you go by

I see you now, deflated spilled

When all you do is cry.
