feedback jeder art Jersey Gulls

[Donna]

Along the river's trail 

Jersey Seagulls sail 

Thinking I've brought them crumbs

Icy air burns and numbs 

 

Sun struggling to be seen 

Grass is frozen sage green 

Walking at a fast pace 

With my Soul I touch base 

 

Now's the time to have Grace 

Including Gratitude 

Toss empty platitudes 

Into choppy waters 

 

Gulls screech, those path squatters 

Block and demand food toll 

 

Two crows on the light pole 

Chime in on the protest 

Making known their request 

Noisy chaos ensues 

 

Manipulative ruse 

Angry that I refuse 

Some fly, circling my head 

"Give me, give me some bread!" 

 

Hitchcock's "Birds" this invokes 

A runner ends provokes 

Dashes through, all disperse 

Quiet reimburses
