With a smile upon my lips I heave a sigh
As black capped chickadee sways on a tree
Observe as autumn clutches the forest green
While falling leaves adorn its path quietly ―
I admire the bird, its calm, its grit and poise
Hear it sing ‘neath blushing cerulean skies
I, through oh mellifluous tenor of nature ―
Gather wit and sense from a nobler time
