uncollectable

1
house finch
cheeping as it hops
by the red clay carp

or maybe that’s
a chipmunk chirping
in the basswood tree

2
two gray squirrels
on the lawn
three gray squirrels

ok two gray squirrels
with their bushy
peacock tails

3
stone birdbath
under the maple
full to the brim a drop 

from a leaf roils
now wobbling in the wind
now still
