To make a prairie it takes clover and one bee, —
One clover, and a bee,
And revery.
The revery alone will do
If bees are few.

Billypar Bryant Park at dusk was one of my last Manhattan destinations a few weeks ago before social distancing began. My friend is into birding and the American Woodcock likes to hang out there when it stops over in NYC on its way migrating north. 5y
Lcsmcat @Billypar How cool! Did you see one? 5y
Billypar We saw two, both looking for food in the same ivy patch. I would recommend Youtubing them: they have such a funny walk ☺🐦 5y
Lcsmcat @Billypar Oh that is funny! Thanks for my morning laugh. 5y

Lcsmcat @jewright I‘m glad! I wish I could have fit the whole poem in the photo - it takes such wonderful turns - but then the print would have been tiny. 5y

I know I already post a lot of poetry, but I‘m making an effort to read some (hopefully uplifting) poetry each day before I read the news. Join me if you like. #pleasure #poetrymatters #poemsbeforepandemic @TheSpineView

Lindy That sounds like a fine plan, Linda. More poetry sounds good to me. 😊 5y
