My son and I wandering in the woods
in the cold winter morning observing
the world anticipating the appearance
of an owl a hawk a heron saw
instead a pretty little bluebird above
our shoulders almost as if on them
and zippity doo dah we could have sung
had we thought of it which we didn’t
but even so my oh my it was a wonderful day
and everything was is and has ever since been
satisfactual and I have no reason
to expect that to change anytime soon.
