Golden Eagle

Its piercing straw yellow eyes,
scanning his territory.

Talons are symmetrical knives,
getting ready to stab its prey.

Hooked lemon beak,
like a golden pirates cutlass.

Breast like a
pounding human’s heart.

Wings spread into action, like a rubber band,
getting ready to launch.

Face filled with concentration
and determination.

White tipped,
dirty feathers blend into fresh minerals.

The golden solitary eagle, gazed down at its prey and strikes.
