A Raven / by KERES

One day I spied a raven,

Soaring over sea,

Then saw it glancing down,

Looking straight at me.

“What a blackened beauty!”

I exclaimed to myself,

"What a sight to behold!”

As it soared above the delph.

The raven heard & dipped its wings,

Glittering in the sun,

Singing a tune long forgotten,

Of doing what I mun’.

So off from there I went,

Ne’er once glancing back,

As I hummed to the raven

Of the darkest black.
