an irregular pulse earlier each year bluebirds

Such a tender juxtaposition.
Really nice – thanks for this
I'm rereading this on Earth Day. Powerful.
Finely observed and perfectly executed Jean.
Wonderful haiku for drawing attention to these irregular seasons
And as as a medical practitioner, I love the allusion to subtle symptoms of future illness.

Dear Jean, Thank you. I remember looking out the window for days when in recovery from an illness. Your poem says so much.

Blessings, Ellen
I seemed to skip line 1 on first reading and and saw our changing planet, but then was pulled back up to it and zoomed right into the heartbeat. Very effective.
