Seasons

The monarch chorus,
carrying hope for a longing soul
species decline, endangered
counting, counted fifty in
last years garden

watching

in the tree an orange flash
oriole?

binoculars

flittering
limb to limb
branches hold wonder

gatherers

the book educated
confer

those who love
live  breathe
know

a smile, a confident nod
knowledge gained
from mother
