Late August

Dappled sunlight makes
even the ugliest birds
look just beautiful.

Thirty-one,
“Feels more like forty”.
Forecast says:
Around 5:00,
stormy weather will arrive–
kill summer at last.

Starlings have
come to strip my tree;
it sounds like
a jungle
in my back garden; waxwings
have missed out this year.

Patience

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