Minus twenty-two

Bird-dish rim frozen solid

Wishing for springtime

Pick and Mix

Hawk had to select

From finches, doves or sparrows—

Pinched a dove this time.

Another Year

Waiting for boosters;

Birds roost outside my window

(Reading Proust (I lie)).

Reprieve

After days and days

Of sunny rays, at last rain!

Songbirds sing with joy.

Solos

Agnes Obel plays

Lifts my soul this winter day—

Outside, a redpoll
