A SONG IN SNOW [Su, 3-10-11]


 Today I walked in snow.
A tiny unnamed bird,
--unknown by name,
unnamed except for courage--
did its best
to sing a spring-time song
in a winter tree
--“bare ruined choirs”—
I sang along.

John Robert McFarland

“Two kinds of gratitude: the sudden kind for what we take; the larger kind we feel for what we give.” Edwin Arlington Robinson
