The day’s beginning
With amazing potential
Bird’s singing at dawn
Early morning with birds singing boldly. I’m not quite ready to leave the comfort of bed and blankets. The sky slowly lightens, second by second.

Birds AwakenedÂ
This morning’s still dark
Abrupt noise into silence
Birds have awakened
This morning’s first birdsong came while I was dosing. Jarring enough to yank my attention. Does the first bird to speak get the early worm? Ot, perhaps, he gets the girl?
Dancing Upon The Spring Breeze
Upon the spring breeze
Birds dancing gracefully skyward
The sunlit swallow
Hummingbirds, Life, Death
​
I watch a hummingbird
And wonder about time
Are we only allowed
A specific number
Of heartbeats?
Seeing the Birds of Spring
Compassion and grace
Linked together as they loop
Spring’s birds appearing
The Great Blue Heron
This gangly bird
Inelegant legs, bearing
Ghost upon the marsh
Awakened by Birdsong
​This sky is still dark
The air erupting with sound
Blessed by these birds
Birdsong Early MornÂ
​
In the dark pre-Dawn
All the birds now come to life
Nature’s opulence
We are free
And now we are free
Embrace it with great reverence
Birds flit between trees
A view from my commuteÂ
​Within the hard rain
Atop steel tree; watching
A hawk sits, hungry
