Herald of joy

I asked the Lord for a sign
I asked if you were true
Could you please; divine?
Send a sign from you

Next day she arrived
A brown falcon; in she flew
Her arrival; she announced
Screeching; chittering; true

She sat upon that aerial
Stayed there quite a while
Allowing me to photograph
Watching me approach

Those piercing black eyes
Following my every move
How unusual a thing to see
This majestic bird; so close to me

Is this that herald of great joy?
Which was promised me?
Is it possible? I ask you dear
Bringing good news; glad cheer...
