Here Am I

                                                                  

Cardinals, sparrows, robins

And other giddily chirping birds

Are singing to spring's first flowerings —

 

Forsythias, dogwoods, and daffodils

In brilliant splashes and blurs

Of bright yellow, white, and gold dappling

 

That purge Saturday morning's chill,

Obscure the world's curses,

Infuse life with jubilation and beauty.

 

And here am I,

Ears, eyes, mind, spirit, and soul

Breathing, listening, witnessing,

 

Wondering what I might contribute

To this season of innocence —

A tune, a hue, a tenderness or two?
