SINGING IN AN EARLY SPRING
19 degrees outside today
frost clings to
rooftops,
cars,
fenceposts,
and
highline wires,
a bird begins to sing in the
tip top of a leafless winter tree,
another arrives, joins the song
flitting through the air, black bodies gleam
twenty
more
silhouettes
againest
the
sky arrive
landing in the prickly branches
joining in the song!
