Curlew Cry,
Screaming Lady
How do you confuse the two
If you know the curlew Cry
You know it’s not the screaming Lady
But
For those who don’t
Fear strikes deep
Heart rushes
Eyes open
Where to launch the rescue
“Don’t be silly,”
A wise man says
“It’s just a curlew”
Heart relaxes
Until
The next time
A curlew’s call
Catches you
Unexpected.
