Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Family Farewell

Mom and Dad Great Egret do take

Their last young remaining at home

For some fishing down at the lake

Before this young takes on life's roam.

In this night there's quiet and calm.

The young egret is aware that

It's time to leave both Dad and Mom

And find a new nest habitat.

The white plumage of the birds' shine

Under the moonlight from the sky.

The three wait patiently to dine,

As some curious fish swim by.

With Mom and Dad in this last night,

Before taking a farewell flight.
