Early this morning,
before the birds began to call,
I sprinkled their food
on the broad porch rail.
One by one they came –
a feast for them and for my eyes.

It’s a stretch of limbs
and a semi-rigid mind,
but I slowly find
a more limber way to be –
an exercise in delight.

So grateful Greta
and others do not err on
the side of caution.
What will become of us if
no one speaks truth to power?

Juniper branches
hold scattered raindrops,
adding a bit of
sparkle to an otherwise
dismal December day.

A Thanksgiving Day
where we all had our say
and we’re still speaking.

All in a flurry –
wind and leaves and birds and folks –
this Thanksgiving Day.
