Reading Signs

Are birds falling from the leaves?

The sun is right and shining.

I hear howls. Should I believe in signs?

I’ve got a row of hibiscus blooming like red trombones.

A pair of hummingbirds come regularly to the feeders.

These are good signs.

The price you pay for the food to lure them in is small, sugar water.

Our home’s swimming pool is big, the clear water. Who believes in signs?

Look out at the swallowtails bigger than the ruby throats.

One can't glide. One can’t buzz.
