a crow, charcoal black, fierce eyes, blue
saturn ring in neck, beak dense black
sharp, arrived mysterious from nowhere
sat on a tree branch bearing mangoes
that protruded to front court yard of the
house, and began to peck it furious! .
inside the house, parents, uncle, aunt and
children sat around grandma, anxiety writ
on face, for she lay speechless for days.
a shattering sound brought all of them to
court yard, saw branch lay fallen, quickly
did the crow fly away leaving the tree! .
when returned home, on surprise wailing of
mother, they found to great shock, grandma
had flown away with the mysterious crow! .

Sphinx came back but granny went out…nicely conceived but gosh yet true….such happens in our lives and your poetic eyes perceived it…
Offbeat canvas …is it under para-psychology …for coincidental occurrences…?

Black is just void of colours. That is why we dislike it and associate with a mysterious world. So is death. The crow is yet a fascinating bird. I liked the plot.

'a mysterious crow! ' as the title presented it- the description of the creature crow by the author. and it (crow) is by the way associated to dark secrets (shadow of evil/death) , in fact in my own tribe we regard it a fatal bad omen...why, because of its awful noise and dark color.
well nice poem it is indeed mysterious because i cannot explain why the crow regarded as what i mentioned above (poor creature) .
all the best...
