Thistledown

Sometimes….

it takes a nuzzle to set a seed~

free~

a finch with a pincer~

to clip the wing’s string~

you have your charms~

but I’m like the thistle~

Kissed by a beak, likely to~

slip~

in the down of a feather~

fleeing the finch like a wish

From the creatures that inhabit the most mysterious realms of our planet to those that make a home in our gardens, our experiences with animals can create lasting impressions. Through a marriage of wildlife photography and the written word, this is where those impressions re-emerge from their thought burrows. Don't be frightened of the light!
