sweet songs of garden birds lost to sensible hiding ways

where have they all gone -

winged in bright orange hues

maybe to the moon

to garner footsteps

left in the precious dirt

daring ancestors

some still say

there are no footprints on the moon

its all a lie

if foxes could write
surely then would be their choice
feathers to quill haunts

teeth clasped feather
there is a hunger for more
daylight progresses

daylight
the one that got away
or the one eaten

always in the wild
with the catch of predators
unanswered questions

mobile phone call -
thunder and stormy winds
dull the volume

morning sky clearing -
golden clouds of my delight
that too will not last

as per usual
in the rainy season -
tossing window drapes

the phone icon green
shouting my conversation -
rain again today
