Large fir tree shivers
Loudly sings the chickadee
Blue sky turns leaden.
Gray clouds lowering
Lilacs bend their purple heads
Tulips sound out light.
Blue-gray dog sleeping
Cushioned in softest music
Mouse peers out, bright-eyed.
New next-door dogs speak
Greetings reach the dog at home
Clamor splits the air.
Dish-pile accuses
Sluggish body coddles guilt
Arise to answer.
