blithe is the songbird
chiming on velvet gold plumes
melody fills spring

june wind props avian flight...
leaving me sad notes, goodbye

This is such a poignant little meditation. I love the way blithe slides off my tongue right from the start, like the bird taking flight. Really smart language choices that make the piece sing (pun intended). Congratulations :)
