A Shadowy Flight, By: Quinn Geaghan

October 16, 2024 by Quinn Geaghan

Onyx Sun Crows, with ruby eyes,
Dahlia-tipped feathers flow,
Against smokey shadows,
Flapping wings of night,
Sun crows take flight.
Majestic in their might,
A fever of smoky quartz,
Gliding upon the Black Sea,
They soar silently,
Wings beating like a dark dream.
