The
charmed life
Par
excellence
The
cormorant
Not
elifonts
Flying
the air
Across
the sand
Flying
the deeps
Enjoying
the land
Wings
they serve
Above
the waters
Finding
a knoll
Drying
the feathers
But
even better
When
diving down
Catching
sardines
With
darts around
Then
quite content
Will
pops a bout
Spreading
to preen
Flopping
them out
When
almost done
With
glistening sheen
Will
flap on top
The
water scene
A
hop and thong
Slapping
along
Will
greet the weather
With
oinking hong
A
trilogous life
In
and out
Above,
below
Without
a snout
