"

As I love nature, as I love singing birds...I love thee, my friend. - Thoreau

The Bird Word: Looking Back at ...

ushering spring
the birds are back
blowing flutes
crocuses adorning their lapels

toting warmth, love, peace, happiness and good will
their joyous song boasting of the good in everything
i thank god they can sing
and for all that they do miraculously bring

Author's Note

Pete
"Each new year is a surprise to us. We find that we had virtually forgotten the note of each bird, and when we hear it again, it is remembered like a dream, reminding us of a previous state of existence. How happens it that the associations it awakens are always pleasing, never saddening, reminiscences of our sanest hours. The voice of nature is always encouraging." - Thoreau
