PINICOLA

Pine Grosbeak

I shall startle you like Jewelweed;

I shall come out at you like a Fox from the woods.

Rain has fallen on hidden frogs

And sun on the maples:



We shall be like spring toads

And like grebes with weeds.



I am Chrysemys in the sun

And you are the wind in the cedars.



The birds from the sky

(coral and gold)

Are like the summer wind in the cedars

like the wind in the tips of the cedars

When they whisper and sing.



FWS, (Thunder Bay, Ontario. 25 July 1976)
