"It's an enigma"
my cool friend-blood sister said-
why bubbles burst

Creating a void
by spinning around
in a blaze
making a sound

It took a minute or two
we found
to hear the sound
and to sing with it

The deluge has been pouring down
for how long, I wonder?
It is not just a drizzle
that gets into your bones
and it's not raining 'cats and dogs'.
Pitter-patter raindrops
Pitter-patter raindrops
all around, on the ground
I don't think it needs it
I wish some spring sunshine
would come our way

Is it the seventh?
I wonder where the workmen are?
I hope they are here

I stopped and I stared
towards the red morning sky
A sight to behold!

I sat and I watched
the sun shadows were changing
as the snow melted

Was it a flock of starlings
or mistle thrushes
I saw murmuring for a moment
in the dark sky?

Realizing they were actually starlings
not mistle thrushes
I deleted them
from my mind

and watched as the starlings continued their orbit
to a warmer county
