Great Blue Heron, Haibun, Haiku, Hudson River, Nature, Phil Gennuso Arts, PHOTOGRAPHY, POETRY, Quatrain
The Great Blue Heron is truly an amazing bird. One of the few birds I have seen who can hang out alone, without any mates. And, relevant to this photo, can stay perched in one spot, almost motionless for quite some time. Sometimes they may be just waiting for prey, but in many cases, as here, they are just in effect, hanging out. And I might surmise, just taking it all in, and thinking things over.
***********************************
perched on a riverside branch
a safe cool spot
to think things over
saturday morn early june
a rare sighting
on my daily walk
freight trains rumble by
in the distance
it does not ruffle a feather
the day came the day went
this precious moment
will stay with me
if heaven is a place on earth
the great blue heron
stands at the gates

Exotic neighbor imported
in a rush of confidence
from a far off land
Scented herb
treatment and delight
for the cognoscenti
flowering bloom for garden
house or glade
Poised here on the library steps
surrounding the stone path
reaching up to the green bench
the resting place to pause and think
A companion to poets and scholars
students, dreamers, and passersby,
and those who would wile the time away
on a pleasant afternoon
