little birds and hidden drafts of wind

I wrote poetry for years but haven't written anything for quite a while. here is a short poem I wrote recently.
The photos above are so beautiful.....from different books I have been enjoying lately.
silk and ribbons, quiet egrets, little children and flowers waving in a hidden draft of wind.
waiting.....wonder wonder.
what is the answer?
pink sky and dancing birds, falling in hidden drafts of wind.
a flock of ancient birds.
a vow, a hinted smile, a walking mile, a bell treating the hidden drafts of wind, that singly walk a mile.
egrets, crows and all ancient birds whose language we do not know, will someday talk with us
someday.
