Raven


Raven Haiku (a type of poem)

Low gutteral call
Of the Raven flying high
To distant mountains.

Was this post/poem inspired by a sighting of a raven, or the upcoming auction of a rare 1st edition of a Poe book?

I like both the poem and the picture, by the way.

Rosebud,
This post was inspired by seeing a Raven flying over our house recently. The Raven is one of Don's favorite birds. We're lucky to have Ravens living in our area.
