Day rising
Sun wakens
Sky gets busy
Painting clouds
Northerly winds
Defer to gentle
Southern breezes
Dew hastens away
Grass becomes sprightly
Little birds learn their songs
Are you awake? Are you aware?
Can you hear?
Tag: birds
life and shadow
when the songs of thrush
and blackbird fall silent
I know night has come
and in the long dark hours
I must search within
for the semblance of song
or learn to hear only
the lonely hooting owl
lifting up
on the wings of birds
in the songs of birds
listen, sing, fly

two birds fly in the
sunrise, pink-streaked-grey above
ariel-topped chimneys

look out the window
at sparrows busy nesting
spring’s first sunny day
10 march 2013
pewter clouds, sun edged
birds on wing fleetingly glimpsed
days of mixed blessings
