Little Blue Heron (Original Poem) for Thursday Writing Challenge - #steemusawrite
![image1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcKRQEsz34GEsrr2nFNBWAEcaCUyvRNt62wxhkEnmUF6g/image1.png)

## <center>Little Blue Heron</center>
<center>Little Blue Heron
Come walk with me</center>

<center>Meet me for fish
In the place with no tree</center>

<center>Hide softly in the waters
Calmly standing still</center>

<center>While bugs fly about
As they often will</center> 

<center>Little Blue Heron
Come look at me</center>

<center>Let me take your picture
Gosh, you are so pretty</center> 

<center>Thanks for not spooking
For not flying quickly away</center>

<center>Instead of keeping on your path
As just another day</center>

<center>Little Blue Heron
I must now go</center>

<center>I have a beautiful image
That I can always show</center>

I am pretty sure an apt description of trying to get the shot. Blue Heron or gull, birds can be so flighty when it comes to getting their pictures taken.

They can indeed! The picture is mine too. I had to be very slow and cautious not to frighten it. There was another heron nearby that was way too skittish so I am thankful I at least caught a few of this guy too.

I like the rhythm of the words! A nice beat to them, plus the words are so sweet and endearing.

Nice first round!

Thank you! Yes, the picture was indeed mine. I figured for the first round I would use one of mine as every week after it will be one chosen from the monday photography challenge.
