Standing sentinela picture of calm
yet ready to pounce
on any unsuspecting fish
reflected beautifully in your surroundings
unaware of the imprint you make
and the impression you leave behind
Elegant and poised
but ready for flight at a moments notice
a moment's clumsiness in the taking off
and then back to your poise
your grace and your majesty
You too have days when you are ruffled
and you show it
hunched up and grumpy looking
back arched against the cold
but you shake yourself out
and preen your feathers
and stand tall
to greet another day
