A song unsung


A song unsung
on a diminished stave
waiting for the conductor
to tap attention.
Evacuees on aerial platforms
anticipate the whistle of a train.
The birds chorus together
for the hymn of flight.

I love all of this. I'm fascinated with this gathering each year. It brings joy, but some sadness too...so many things do! Brenda
