. Warm sunlight On Genesee Street In Muskegon There is regardless After all a blue sky Above Lake Michigan Men and women Are walking around Again with open coats To take in the April air The park lawns Have begun to green Soon leaves and flowers Will bud as well Who ever imagined alone It would come to this . . . It really doesn’t matter That you’re not here To small squirrels With bushy tails Frisking among The forest branches A single sparrow Flying over Wooden eaves . |

How I love this poem!!! It is like spring breeze. And it was the first time in your poems that the sparrow was not under wooden eaves. You finally let them fly out!!! one at a time ![]() Beautiful. |
