A walk in the park during lunch hour

A cool breeze
under the trees
'neath the first blossoms
and this spring's fresh green leaves

Surprise!
A robin redbreast
with orange "chest"
temporarily found
on the ground
I could almost touch it
It even seemed to be
watching me
warily
'til it flew away
into the spring day

What a joy, a miracle,
to be alive in late April!
