i didn’t want to tamper with your work, billie, however, in thinking of (the alder flycatcher), this small, delightful bird, sung out to me, my picturing it flying beneath and about the canvas of the same named tree.

winter sunset
the mood i have been stuck
in these two months
campfire…
the northern lights
shift above the forest
brilliant moonlight
barren city streets …
distant bird’s haunting carol
