The Grey King

"Hazy on the horizon all around,

The mountains lay like sleeping animals..."

The yawning openings of their caves steadily

Inhaling and exhaling a stream of birds

Whose caws and clicks and whistles

Were reminiscent of the sounds of a dozing lion,

Dreaming about wildebeest and warthogs.

Themetastic!

So...fearing lack of inspiration, I have decided that my poems this year will all begin with a line taken from a book. The title of each poem will be the book from whence the quoted line was taken. Huzzah!
