BIRDSONG


Dickcissel

                                              Birdsong brings relief
                                              to my longing.

                                              I am just as ecstatic as they are,
                                              but with nothing to say!

                                              Please, universal soul, practice
                                              some song, or something, through me!
Rumi
Dickcissel

I would rather learn from one bird
how to sing than teach 10,000 stars how not to dance.

      Thanks, Laura. Good to hear from you again. And, yes, these times are extremely painful and challenging. Hopefully, some positive changes will come soon. During the meantime, the only refuge many of us can find is in nature, beauty, and creativity, all of which are present in you postings.
