Bats


Fluttering, flapping

The leathery wings,


Screeching, howling

The epauletted bat sings.


On a Fall night,

The cries can be heard.


Bats of all kinds,

Mistake them not for a bird.


The Stars in the sky

The bats in the air.


Silence, we hear

Echolocation is there.


Finding their prey,

Sonar in use.


Bats are amazing,

a very inspiring muse.
