“Oh, Look, the Humans have Returned”
In spring our little hummingbirds return
And geese begin to vee their way back north
The front-yard squirrel continues to fatten himself
Upon the cardinal-contested seeds
Aggressive mockingbirds dive-bomb the cats
Pale butterflies dance lightly in the sun -
But none of these can be the same who met
Us on an autumn day in the long ago
Someday others will live here, and the birds
Will say “Oh, look, the humans have returned.”
