Caught Red Handed or should I say Red mouthed??

Black and orange flycatcher- Isn't she beautiful?

MIRAGE

And so the day wore on
And slowly evening turned to night
The rain added to the gloom
As he sank deeper into the depths
The past seemed a distant dream
The future a thin mirage

There had been friends
They had come and gone
Like the western wind
They had blown but awhile
The past grew dimmer in the mind’s eye
The future, an elusive streak in the sky

Time was when he aimed for the heavens
Time was when he reached for the stars
But the times, they passed on
And he settled for lesser heights
The past is lost in the mists of time
The future…………. ………….
