We
stood
at
the
"
look
-out"
Overlooking
the
pristine
Cascade
Mountains
A
plaque
on
a
pedestal
Seemed
irrelevant
compared
to
Natural
Beauty
There
were
these
birds
observing
us
Chirping curiously
from
the
lower
branches
I
made
eye
contact
with
the
boldest
one
There
was
an
understanding
between
us
Unwritten
,
unspoken
,
nevertheless
I
lifted
my
hand
and
extended
my
finger
Offering
a
makeshift
perch
which
he
excepted
Tilting
his
head
...
"peep"
he
said
with
quizicle connotations
And
he
lept
into
the
air
Slowly
,
gracefully
, boldly
this
wild
creature
advanced
with
his
wings
spread
out
and
just
as
he
was
inches
away
from
a
precedental
encounter
I
jerked
my
finger
away
...
and
screamed
like
a
woman
