FOREST KINGFISHER





Forest Kingfisher

It flies between a tea-tree-bordered shallow reedy lake
And the weeping willows spread by a small farm dam,
Like a dart missile behind the spear wedge of officious nose
With a navy uniform jacket of coloured sky or water blue shining like
A blazon flag to herald its double periscope in submarine sniping
Like a creature built with a radar of eyes set over and after fish.
