A continuous banner of birdsong
was quavering
in the light of dawn.
It was like listening to the symphony
and trying to hear
each individual instrument.
This was no ordinary concert,
for the migrating warblers
had joined the year round residents.
It was the marvelous
month of May in Michigan;
magnificent!
My ears were filled with joy
as my brain picked out
the songs of singers singing.
