    This is gorgeous, Mary Lee! It's pretty incredible to me how succinctly you've managed to capture this moment without a photograph.

    I especially like the sky metaphors of comet and contrail. I'm enjoying watching birds this spring. Thanks for writing and keeping the Twitter community going.

    Yes, they are flying and flying. What I also notice so much these mornings is their birdsong. It is a lovely sound and sight. And the bluejays and crows, well they add to the chorus for sure!!!
