have the geese returned?

a man
runs by me on the street
followed
by three policemen
in full
pursuit.
their radios crackle
with
anxiety.
i lick my ice-cream
cone
and step aside,
then keep
walking. I wonder 
how the park
is this
time of day,
the broad blue lake.
have the geese flown
back from
their winter sojourn?
