The Flight Of The Heron Chelsea London
The moment of ultimate vanity
When the heron spreads its wings
In a seemingly effortless rise
Does he contemplate his image
Reflected in the mirror of a muddy river
Does he think he is awkward or ugly
Or, looking down at the crawling creatures
Wants to cry aloud ‘here comes the king!’
If wasn’t for the ravens who peep and listen
