Early enough

A hummingbird AND a tree full of cedar waxwings.  Who knew there would be such a reward for getting up early this morning?

I got up early enough

To witness the hummingbird

In the bee balm,

My first hummingbird

Of the year.

Then

As if to say

See what you miss

By sleeping later

The mountain ash filled

Momentarily

With cedar waxwings.

Now there is one lone robin

At the very top

Of the mountain ash.

He is

Silent in the sun.
