Family of Four

Family of four
swimming on the
pond on this fair
day so breezy.

Going to and fro,
little ones falling
behind and then,
little legs moving
so rapidly to catch up.

Birds so many
sweet sounds they
make so well,
Redwinged Blackbird
wondering what I'm doing.

Into the marshes
went family of four
such a comfort to be here,
but must move on until
another beautiful day.
