Spring Observation

A robin walks down the cement driveway in the rain, a comic sight, its legs stiff as if from disuse. In the holly, still bearing its winter red berries, another robin nests.

The holly is on the other side of my living room window, so that I can peek at the nest from inside the house. When the robin leaves to stretch her wings and find food, I see that she has laid four blue eggs, each one no bigger than the pad of my forefinger.

How is spring shaping up for you? What sights and sounds do you notice? Which ones make you feel something? These are the springboards of poetry.
