Bird's Watch
The cock crows
Cock a doodle doo.
I am up in bed.
In my study, while
revising my writing
hear the Cuckoo's call.
Coo, coo it caws without
break. Distracted,
I bang the window,
As I walk down the aisle
to collect the news papers
a raven caws in a croaked voice.
Placing the paper on the sideboard,
the love call of the peacock
holds me for awhile/
Opening the backyard.
the sparrows while pecking
chirp incessantly.
The day has begun well.
Birds and I work together.
Our portfolios well in order
