Wild Turkey


you


are


so


much


more


than


the


wobbly


tracing


of a small hand


crayoned with an autumn rainbow


of brown, yellow, black, and white:


in the feathers of true life


you are iridescent


copper and bronze


shimmers shifting


under the setting sun


 much               taller


                          than a             child's                         


hand               and


  stoically             stubborn


    taking            your own


grand                 time


      crossing            ever so     


  slowly             slowly


 this sun           spattered


back                                   road
