Raven Poem by Rose Stern

Jet black feathers,
Beedy white eyes,
Razor sharp beak,
The beautiful raven bird.
Associated with Death,
Black as the night,
Seen as messengers
Of the gods.
Realm travelers,
Between the living and the dead,
Wisdom bearers,
Such wise old creatures.
The beautiful raven,
Cold as night,
Have a better memory,
Than most of us.
Don't make them mad,
They will remember you,
They communicate with devils,
And will bring Hell onto you.
