Sunrise, 4/30/20 (and multiple mornings throughout April)
Chochenyo Ohlone Ancestral Land (AKA Oakland, CA)
Yay for the expanding Birdsong!
Yay for the birds!
Yay for avian harmonies!
Yay for less cars on the freeway!
Is this unexpected blessing,
from this devastating tragedy,
happening because there are more birds now,
or because we can hear them better without freeway sound overload,
or because they feel safer now,
or because I’ve slowed down enough to really listen?
It doesn’t matter.
Birds!
Birds!
Blessed Birds!
Sing us home.
