Persimmons
I wonder if they wait every year,
like I do,for persimmons to ripen.
Today the Cedar Waxwings found my tree.
For them I left all the fruit
that touched the sky.Maybe they waited for the first frost,
for that delicate mushy sweetness.
Now I watch
as they fly back and forth,t
heir neat gray feathers
tipped with red.
Through all the worries of this and that,
illness and despair,
the birds still come
and feast.
