Winter's Wild Turkeys
Nine wild turkeys walking in early morning's freshly fallen snow, heads and necks stretched far forward.
Feathered bodies struggling chest deep in winter's white canopy, on wind blown landscape blurred.
Startled by vehicle's passing black silhouettes against white snow, rise up and into dawn's early light.
Whisp... Whisp... Whisp outstretched wings flapping, searing early morning's arctic air.
Natures ancient creatures quickly flung on wavering flight; vanish, into winter's distant landscape. |
