Magpie.
There was just one
But I didn't turn my eyes away.
I smiled.
It stepped boldly nearer
And the memories were my companions.
Sorrow?
I looked again and saw
That there were two- there always had been-
Overlooked
Though the other had been.
I could not help but laugh at myself,
And the magpies.
There's always two
We just have to take the time to see.
