The only bird that dares to peck an eagle is the crow
This poem can be a teaching tool for people we all know
A crow will ride atop the eagle pecking at its neck
The crow may be a nuisance but it doesn’t have respect
The eagle spreads its wings ascending higher in the sky
It may not seem like much but there’s a perfect reason why
The eagle disregards what we would think would make it seethe
It simply keeps ascending ‘til the crow can hardly breathe
The crow eventually falls away, the atmosphere’s too thin
So people, keep ascending and your “crows” will never win

I’ve been writing poetry (rhyming mostly) since about 2014 and have recently transitioned to writing novels and short stories. My poetry genres are faith, humor, social issues, politics, pretty much any subject matter.
