I Saw
I saw the yellow blaze
of forsythia everywhere
on one sunny day
I saw the starlings return
to the neighborhood
Must be word got out
Bird feeders are full
I saw the brave trans women
emerge with the spring
outfits much more perfectly matched
than mine
I saw the homeless men
sitting on benches
getting color on their cheeks
I saw my girl with so many scarves
A mountain of them
I saw life emerging again
I saw spring
