Sitting in my SUV in a semi-automatic scan while driving by

I happened by chance that day to spy a blue heron in a fly by

Watching as it disappeared down a beautiful gorge half hidden

I found myself entranced and drawn compelled to its bidding

Finding a place to park I knew that I wanted to see where it flew

Probably not something that prudent people would want to do

But, I have always loved blue herons so off I was and followed

Down into this previously unknown gorge I went and was swallowed

Not by some monster or horror but surrounded in all of the beauty

And well that blue heron begged to be photographed; it was my duty

Down further and further on this unknown trail I followed and went

Down even further until most of the previously planned day was spent

I got the photograph that I had so desperately been inclined for

But also discovered the old abandoned Jazz studio and so much more
