Ready for spring


Ready for a new couple and their family. Ready for birdsong. Ready for spring.

A bird does not sing because it has an answer. It sings because it has a song.
-Chinese proverb

I once had a sparrow alight upon my shoulder for a moment, while I was hoeing in a village garden, and I felt that I was more distinguished by that circumstance that I should have been by any epaulet I could have worn.
-Henry David Thoreau

perhaps a bird's song answers
an impossible
to answer
question,
instead of why,
in what situation
does song
take flight
within a small throat
spacious enough for all possible
notes?
