I Saw A Hawk

~ Christine Goodnough

I’m trying another TREOCHAIR this morning. Don’t know why I like this form of poetry, as it’s so hard to work out. Or maybe that’s why? Anyway, this will be my response to today’s RAGTAG Daily Prompt: YEARN

I Saw A Hawk

Saw a hawk
resting calmly in a tree
I paused to gawk

but that hawk
chanced to get a glimpse of me.
He let out a squawk,

not happy he,
observed by the likes of me,
forsook his aerie.

Mighty wings
carried him across the lea.
What amazing things!

Spirit stirred,
I yearn for another glimpse
of that noble bird.
