Tiny yellow finch
moving within the flutter
of a larger flock~
Cautious, hungry flight
finding seed treasure nearby
feasting in small nips.
Shadow birds hover
waiting for a chance to grab
greedy for power.
With clapping hands I shout!
Claiming yard for my finch friends
no shadows remain.
Scrub jay stands alone
under seed bag, wondering~
who will join me now?
