A Cloud of Bats
Shrouded night fliers
hang upside down in secret
cavesraftersforests
Twilight hunters search
detecting echoesswooping
scooping winged morsels
Wearysatisfied
bats return to shadowy roosts
cloaked in mystery
hang upside down in secret
cavesraftersforests
Twilight hunters search
detecting echoesswooping
scooping winged morsels
Wearysatisfied
bats return to shadowy roosts
cloaked in mystery
