~Murmuration~

I watch, captivated

Unspoken and untethered they rise

a white winged blanket 

snow geese taking flight

from their camouflaged harbor

of frosty farmland

Hundreds in unison fl-fl-flapping

Whoosh                                           up

Tip-to-wing-tip they soar up up up

                                                              merging with the white clouds

                                                              safely cradling in against the sun
