Up, Up and Away!

…….and down the street are white clematis!
I don’t know the name of the flowering bush outside my window ~

tiny white flowers have covered it like fine lace
faded now, 
the white lace trimmed in sepia as they dry
beginning to seed

a charming flock of sparrows
danced, twittered and fluttered through 
leaf-heavy thin branches bending in the wind
tiny berries only starting to show lovely orange.

Then with a final dip down onto my patio 
they challenged the wind and flew up, up and away.

“Birds are the magicians of nature! They are here, 
they are there and they are every where!”
~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
