Crisp spring air and windless days,
countless gobbles float your way.
Thick beards, longspurs, and symmetrical fans
These are the treasures of a turkey man.
Silent battles and calling wars,
a simple answer makes hope soar.
Merriam, Eastern, or the Rio Grande.
these are the treasures of the turkey man.
The pleasant weight of a shouldered bird.
The story of a hunt and each sculpted word.
It is the sacred hunt of a bird so grand,
that is the most treasured, to the turkey man.
