Move and Pause
On a Saturday I flew
from murky air.
My wings grown weak,
I stole away
from plundered nest,
casual stings,
and skillful barbs.
In family's fold, I perch.

Wow, "In family's fold, I perch." So true/real/moving. And a hint of affirmation.

Perfect. Love it. What a GREAT line!
I can see the movement and the pause in this wise, gentle poem.*
