Fuzzy Bird Flower

 

 Winter white goes on;
Spring is just a memory
About to happen.

The tufted titmouse
Crashes into the feeder--
(Other birds don't laugh).

 

Fuzzy bird flower
Emerging from the thin air
Heads for the feeder.

 

White wisps of smoke flow
From the old farm house chimney
Joining the soft clouds.

Assholes with beer cans
Decorate the road, field, stream--
Art for imbeciles.

 

Snaking through the snow,
Dead leaves' forgotten memories--
Brown stream of the Spring. 

No longer alive
They're hosting a new life form:
Lichen-tattooed trees.

The mound of blackness
Seems much colder than the cold--
A burned out bonfire.
