Birds Skitter
bitty birds jig and flitter
they don’t care
much
they don’t hole up to wait it out
but dive in and out
of the rain
bounce breezily
small flocks feather fluff
preen
hop and skip along
they don’t miss a thing
as they wick away drip-drops
we could
we should stop to watch them
but it’s raining too hard
and wet running eyes
will not look
no
not even for a moment
