there they are some feathers
knotted drawn and left
scrunched up on that garden bush
tragically bereft
and what was it that left it there
tousled and ,lost who knows
wet and looking like a spiral
this is how it goes
could it be fur its hard to see
wet with rain all tossed and turned
foreign to the burnished bush
but you know i am still concerned
