My Bird Photos (a Haiku)

Walking home in the late afternoon beneath a low blanket of cloud, I found the light dull and the sky muted. Even so, I managed to capture these birds in flight. The dim conditions left my original photos a little blurry, but with the help of my Copilot app, I was able to gently sharpen them and bring their motion back to life.






My Bird Photos (a Haiku)


Birds do not need words
Artistically superb
They’re the sky’s Rembrandts






β€œA song to drift with, wings open to the sky β€” an echo of freedom to follow the final image

G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer. I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.
