His bird feeder found a way
to win some happiness for him,
simply by swaying softly
as the birds
brought their needs to it.
He held in his heart
a space the size of Texas
for things that sway –
a feeder, trees in winds,
his little but valiant life,
and the birds
that bring the benevolence
of their lives
to just outside his window.
