Six months of darkness,
Desire for the Springtime
Knowing it’s soon gone

Spring is in the air,
Blossom petals on my boots.
Soon we’ll mourn it’s end

Sunrise in the fields,
Tulips and a mountain peak,
Touched by golden light

Still announcing spring,
The trillium are indifferent
To the joy they’ve shared

In the solitude of the spring
Around dozens more

Wilson’s Warbler
Wilson’s Warblers flit restlessly between perches and make direct flights with rapid wingbeats through the understory. Unlike most warblers, they spend most of their time in the understory grabbing insects by hovering or by picking insects from foliage. -allaboutbirds.org
