Cawing Crows Are Constant Company Poem by Raj Arumugam

Cawing Crows Are Constant Company

Rating: 5.0


Caw, Caw, Caw, Caw,
they go.
Waking us up to a new dawn:
Caw, Caw, Caw, Caw
- they go
from early morning to late noon.
Sitting on wires over the kerbs
like a gathering of surly beggars,
crowing crows are constant company.
What their caws presage though are a mystery.




(from The Migrant - notes of a newcomer (February 1997- July 1998))

I'm sure for a sum of money you could find someone who claims to be able to decipher premonitions from crows..Another great crow poem.
