Again, looking ahead as winter begins to fade, a scribble from last summer.

We don't have catbirds in the UK, so I had to look it up. I get the impression that they make a wailing sound. A nice juxtaposition of images Magyar...

I am thinking celebration.

This makes me feel so nostalgic and peaceful at the same time.

Catbirds imitate other animals, the Hülskrabbe (Ilex) helps against witchcraft. So I see your lyrical I travelling from the rim of your glass onto the river of your drink into the land of ... somewhere. Very nice.

Best wishes

__Grey Catbirds are mimes, mockers of sorts, echoes to which I relate... their common voice, a muew. Most of their time is spent unseen in the under-growth as they seek existance. But, I've found them quite friendly, and as I speak to them, they answer... my summer friends.
__I thank you all for your very kind comments and visits!

Winter came and laid
its soft blanket
o'er the land

Spring, refreshed from slumber
lifts its head
quietly from the sand
