...
She lay there
Warm
Limp
Beautiful

Cradled in my hands
Unconscious
Perhaps

Yet my thoughts chilled
As her blood ran cold

Neck broken
Death was instant

I caressed her lifeless body
Whispered regretful sorrows

Buried her gently

Did she see the beauty?
Of her sparrow-hawk reflection
Just before, she met the glass
Of the patio door.[/b]

I have chosen Steve's poem The Looking Glass

A true to life poem looking at the dangers that birds face. also Steve wrote it in such a way that kept the reader guessing until the final lines Well done Steve
