about

A poem about birdsong in the morning.

lyrics

I live on Bird/Quadrant,
but it is not
the intersecting street signs
at the end of my block
that tells me this.
It is the morning’s orchestra;
the notes of mother nature’s tongue
incited
by the fresh rays of sun
that warm a song
out of the feathered philharmonic
of my otherwise quiet
neighborhood.
This is serenity:
this solitary moment
nestled into the frenzy
of trills
that overlap one another,
as crinoline overlaps itself
in the skirt of a ballerina.
