Blue Statue

 




The Great Blue Heron statue,

standing still in shallow water,

begins a slow-motion ballet.



A picture of patience,

leaning over its own reflection,

holding a pose of predation.



Cattail leaves swaying gently,

frame the backdrop for

the anticipated attack.



Living spear thrusts.

Calm water splashes.

Heron pierces prey.
