Poetry

hierarchy
 
first the
sparrow then the
wren gliding down to peck
the birdseeds hiding between blades
of grass
 
followed
by a pair of
cardinals which were mates
bright red and light brown scratching the
dry ground
 
next came
the large and blue
cardinal mates hogging
the sunflower seeds scattered on
the grass
 
and then
they flew up all
in a rush and the dove
no longer mourning landed and
feasted//
