The birds of a winters eveningsA Poem by Michael Oliver![]() sometimes a ifs I came home in the late afternoon, in winter, there would be the odd collection of birds in the trees in front of my home.![]() The unmoving of the air sings the midwinter sigh Trees being unheard veils of the summer memory Their thin rhythm hold alighted evening notes A suggested whisper touching the dusk sky emptimness These birds placed improvisations bright with some aria In the fabric of the turning season slumber A winter air lullaby a roosted moments harymoy To the wan sun and the years setting © 2013 Michael Oliver |
