Great Blue Heron Roaming Free

Great blue heron roaming free,
In wetlands free and clear,
Awaiting on a wooden box,
For flight-winds to appear,

Awaiting the right moment,
With its wings to soar away,
For herons do not fly with haste,
With patience do they stay,

A symbol of the wisest luck,
Good judgment, wings of grace,
A fisherman successful,
And divinity in place,

A message not to rush ahead,
Or make decisions fast,
Have patience like the heron,
Keep your focus wide and vast.

-Pamela Storch
