Shadow of a Doubt

I believe, I’ll put
away my parka this year
(fearing mere reprieve).
Will winter, once more return?
Will spring, come, to us relieve?

Rope

I could have used one
to traverse my frozen yard
in order to feed
the wet and weary birds that
depend on my persistence.

Psycho

Frozen feeders need
raging stabs with kitchen knife,
manic-faced in deed.

Does the song
of house finches send
signals to
the juncos
that spring is here—time to go?
No, not yet.

Early Birds

Unyellowed, first pair
of goldfinches return with
their mellow music.
