dressed in feather fluff
bellies full with comfort

risking silent snowfall
burying their previous day's tracks

unhinged birds don't stay here in the winter
the silence is deafening
the only sound
the click clacking of naked branches

bluejay would rather have catfood
leaving snowshoe prints
flashing blue moving dream
