What the birds and squirrels teach daily

The birds continue as they were
We keep evolving our latest noises
To bring supposed comfort
They have their own forts
Against our fortitudes
And they won’t budge.
We bring our gas leaf blowers
To blow away leaves from our golf courses. In the meantime
Egrets nest in that faux stream
We made to emulate tranquility.
The birds are already tranquil
In being, feeding singing, flying high, just being themselves,
Above us all. And they know how to nest, and when to migrate.
The squirrels are willing to deal with us
If interested, for a nut or two
But they too go Ariel eventually
Having gotten fed up
With our overwatering of their hidden nuts
They are nuts, I heard one say while climbing away on a telephone line yesterday. He was both explaining what he buried, and us. At least that was my take away!
We have not learnt to tend the earth,
So it is now in a position to remind us of how
To tend ourselves until we learn to listen,
At least to the birds and squirrels
In Love.
