feeder
planted on a pole
in the middle of the yard
brings in
the birds.
but the squirrels too,
the mice
on the ground
collecting the fallen
seed.
it's a wild scene.
all color
of wings,
different sizes,
fat and small with
strange odd beaks.
how quickly they gorge
on so many pounds
of seed.
it reminds me of Captain
George's
on Laskin Road,
at the beach.
the long buffet of food,
all you can eat.
