The Blue Finch Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan
The Blue Finch
The Blue Finch
I find a shrew scary
a dragonfly beautiful, artistic, and elegant
a moth annoying
before you know
there are small holes in your clothes
a butterfly is graceful and beautiful
I have the feeling that Luna comes to visit us daily
she considers our garden her hunting ground
Too bad she's after them
will she have brought the shrews out of the forest?
everything else can be found in our garden
cats are small predators
they kill insects and other small flying creatures
the very last time, she brought me a blue finch,
her teeth in the sweet bird, still half alive,
but the little singer could no longer fly,
at this point, I really do not like Luna
our own black cat Panther
long dead, never killed anything
Luna also battered and tortured this blue finch until it died, really terrible!
I am certainly not happy about this last 'killing'.

Powerfully and yet beautifully expressed! .. Your sentiment and beautiful respect and love for all nature! .. So awesome! ..
This may not seem like a big deal to us but in reality, it is a matter of the balance of nature. Nice one Madam Sylvia.
Sylvia As my uncle joe would say it is nature TFS Bravo! ! ! ! !
Indeed, it is nature, but in my own garden, very sad to watch that. Luna did not go to her own house, but she stayed in my garden with the blue finch until the bird really died
