Observations on a (m)useless day

by Brian Francis


The cardinals sing and bathe below
The window to my little studio
Where dreams are chased
And sometimes caught
To the tune of natures bards

Romping and playing in the street nearby
The echoes, screams and cries of fun
Careen through the window
And into my mind
Instantly clearing my thoughts

Dinner is cooking and the bread is made
And the cats and the dog are asleep
And the gentle chirping
In the nest outside
Speaks of comfort and warmth

Seems nice, all the same, for lacking overt inspiration. I don't think the title does it justice.

sounds like the muse is alive and well in this piece...vivid portrait enhanced by the sounds down the page...

Beautiful...homey...very down to earth. Perhaps the muse camouflaged in the feathers of those cardinals?
