Big, fat raven
sitting on a fence post.
Spring is here,
don’t you know?
Ravens don’t usually
hang around here
in the warmer months,
they head North,
I think.
Wonder what it is
you’re looking for?
It’s spring,
so a mate
might be the answer.
I’ve heard
that ravens mate for life
and that’s a pretty
rare and special thing.
We used to do the same.
Or, maybe you’re just looking
for your dinner.
Either way,
I hope you score big,
little black feather man.
I hope you get
the life
you were born to live.
