Disregard the snow--or if you're really hot, imagine...
a break in the heat
windows open to cicadas
and birdsong
~~
hidden
in the Virginia Creeper
a singing wren
~~
seeing red:
apple feeder, salvia
and cardinals
~~
drone of the traffic
close, but unseen
a cardinal's 'chit-chit-chit'
~~
crickets still singing
a yellow leaf falls
on my yellow shirt
~~
trip to the feeder
hummingbird stops on in-line
wire: cat, child close by
~~

First one is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI love the birds that gift me with their presence. We have a little wren, lots of cardinals, a pair of mockingbirds, house finches and recently a pair of bluebirds. Those eyes on that cicada tickle me.
