thank you; thistime, on this walk, I took my phone camera with me, and there it was at my feet: accidental art ; probably a spill of oil or some liquid —
Observation. It’s so important in life, add a depth and richness. A dozen people walked past, you saw something that lit a spark. Love the way you see the world John.
You never know what gems lay in wait! Depending on how you look at it, it could be prehistoric bird in flight, or long necked dinosaur with a sweeping tail.
The poets eye and imagination. Every word from the title down… working.

true, I never considered the bird aspect but I see it now; I remember the word now for this way of seeing: pareidolia —
