Weather Retorts

This group of poems is about the weather and/or the seasons that rule it.

Birdsong at Dawn

Feather-light divas and tiny sopranos
crowd the proscenium outside my window.

A musical interlude, the chorus weaves

Mourning dove and warbling wren into
Act New on the loom of operatic days.
