Yes,
I had been away,
For awhile.
Long enough
To make
The mail
Pile up.
So,
Were the birds looking
In my window to see
If I was home?
First a crow,
Settled on the upper branches
Of the tree,
And glared.
Hopped around and glared,
From branch to branch.
Then a blue jay
Did much the same.
Less glaring but
Just
As inquisitive.
And then a
Chickadee
Dee dee
Hop hop hopping
Light as air.
Branch to branch
&
Twig to twig
Look look
Looking.
If I had been missed,
Now I was found.
