Long-tailed, sleek, its plumage gleams; iridescently

With green, blue and purple streaks – that catch the sunlight

And turns this black and white crow, into an image

Which captures its elegance … in spite of its aim.

Inspired by Colleen’s Tanka Tuesday Challenge. Click through for the rules if you want to join in! This week’s challenge is to write an Imayo poem. The subject must be about a bird! It can be any type of bird.
