.the bird in hand.

wind blows ideas into our houses
messages bring connections

a busy day with folk talking
it was the weekend with time
to spare

yet so many came tiring
alongside the wind blowing

the leaves are ready
to be gathered today
unless the wind is blowing

the bird in hand is drawn
rules to guide us

with stars above that have no points
at all

yet each one has a story
each one an individual even when
the wind blows
