I wrote this quatrain for my high school Creative Writing class journal on 1 March 1978. I lived only a half mile from school so I walked weather permitting. I usually cut through a pasture on the edge of a wood, so I often received "pastoral" inspiration.

Corvus

The Black One who flies
Salutes me each morn
With his harsh and rasping cries
By which the air is torn.
