Fly off dark eyed junco
fly away home.
I’m tired of the snow
that sits at April’s door.
I want to see the crocuses
on my garden floor.
Fly away little junco
fly away home.
Welcome chipping sparrow
with the annoying song.
Irritate me with your
chipping –
yes please
bring it on.
The music brings relief
from the darkness before dawn.
Hello beloved sisters
resilience is our name.
Equality’s pace is scheduled
for confirmation – give or take
in a hundred years,
so we may as well
enjoy the birds,
the singing of the birds.
Per the Global Gender Gap Report 2018, World Economic Forum the Economic Gender Gap will close in 108 years.
