Before my second
birthday
My father
came upon Eagle,
Eagle had a broken wing
She was so damaged
She could not live long
this way
My father tenderly
wrapped Eagle up in a blanket
and was off to the veterinarian
The veterinarians did all
they could
but Eagle did not
make it
Eagle had
passed
only minutes
when the power to the building
suddenly
went
out
Outside
Owl
had blown
a transformer
when he came to sit
near
and respect Eagle
This is my first memory.
