Reprove for the Red Tail

Post by Atehequa »

Either perched upon your flagpole, or roof
Flame hued orbs taking in a bird’s eye view
Patiently waiting for a mouse, vole or rabbit to eat
Swiftly swooping down with sharp talon feet

Gentle lady of the house, watching in horror
As the large red tail devours a cottontail
Broom in hand she shoos the hawk away
Forgetting that the creator made him that way

So it is the same with two different people
A farmer plows soil while a hunter stalks game
Love for the cottontail, or reprove for the red tail ?
Some approved for heaven, others condemned to hell
