Sweet bird outside my

but I like your song

Kingfisher in the

scolds from the tree branch.

Ocean, the budgie,
burbles and chirps in his cage –
why’s he so happy?

Oriole flew in

Young robin looked up –
worm in beak — and watched me as
I regarded it.

It’s Earth Day, people –
if nothing else, listen to

Last week a bird cooed
under my a.c. Then it
moved out. I miss it.

Red-winged blackbird sits,
sings in my backyard — took a
wrong turn in the swamp?
