| Posted by Kyle Anne Kish on 08/11/05 at 06:17 AM Your descriptive power in this poem is ever-so-right-on, Michael. I can't get over the imagery ... "graceful and prehistoric; a stealth walker" ... great combination of words. I love this poem. |

| Posted by Karl Waldbauer on 05/07/06 at 05:11 PM Congratulations on POTD. You've done such a good job of capturing the elegance and primitive beauty of these beautiful birds. The next time you look at a heron's face think "velocoraptor" and know that the dinosaurs are still with us. |

| Posted by Elizabeth Jill on 05/11/06 at 04:37 AM And mother wind swooshed now is tickling my mind. Before the night's over, I'll have the whole poem printed out in giant flamingo letters and glue them to my wall. I can't help loving this poem! |
