vaneramosI saw the flowers on Kingsmill Avenue in slanted light at 8:15.
In the park I heard voices I've missed for weeks: a grosbeak's nasal cry, a great-crested flyctacher's insistent wheep! A waxwing crowd of gentle, gregarious whistles bustled from one treetop to the next. Two chickadees on a mullein stalk told me a richer tale than usual: "Chick-a-burble!"
Beside the river I befriended a black cat with tiny green burrs dotting her coat. I know where she lives. She had wandered far. We kept company for a hundred metres before she left the trail, blending into the undergrowth. We must each stick to our own path, enjoying pleasure while we may, but not letting it distract us.
