Wednesday 6:00 AM
A plague of grackles has descended
Their rusty-gate call pierces the silence of my mind
My thoughts, like seeds scatter
Gleaned by a scurry of squirrels

Squirrels and grackles at 6 a.m. Better to sleep in another hour! lol Love the “plague of grackles”!
Visual and moody. Word choices like plague, descended, pierces, and gleaned set the tone with precision.
