after the long southwester

Will you believe me when I say how much the number of robins out there excites me…this morning again, even in the snowy rain, they sit in the highest of bare branches. Some fly across to the junipers, their dark needled limbs jumping with busy inhabitants.
fourteen birds sit high
her binoculars see red
snow shrinking below
where she celebrates each sign
those round robins may bear young

roundup of robins
preludes winter’s last full moon
spring is in the wings,
a curtain of leaves will come,
conceal their feathered presence
