our bluejay jeer-jeers
amid newly-forming buds
before he disappears
Copyright 2022 Brenda Davis Harsham
Notes: My camera missed our bluejay, but it found some signs of spring in the buds.
Here is some life-coaching from Margaret Atwood’s February:
You’re the life principle,
more or less, so get going
on a little optimism around here.
Get rid of death. Celebrate increase. Make it be spring.

The “boys” (2 or 3 bluejays) visit my feeder out my front window, and I love it! I try to keep the feeder full so we can have dinner together!
