Thank you so much, happy you like it! Really appreciate the advice! Hadn't picked up on that, I'll definitely correct it. 😊

I like this a lot. The flow feels familiar. It has a kind of a back and forth way about it. 

The part, "as they fly back in from far" is a syllable off. "returning from afar" might feel better to you. think about it.


Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).

If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.

If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that.
