Patience

Waxwing Weekend was
wonderful, but for the fact
it lacked for waxwings.
Not one called in–holding out
until all cherries go black.

Swinging fruit,
blackening on choke-
cherry stems;
waxwing blitz
(Cannot forget the bzzt, bzzt!)
in the wind, I think.

I am euphoric!
Waxwings plundering cherries—
Robin’s tormented.
