Evening Rain
By SherinMary Zacharia
Wings flutter fast, homeward
Drizzle brews more into a storm.
Vermillion sky turns darker
In sorrow of the fading sunshine
Fledgelings huddle over drenched twigs
Worries seek shelter beneath tired wings.
Frets from the pavements chase the clouds
Damp homes await hard-earned morsels.
