November birds







November birds dancing in the still blue sky.
Weaving patterns of air
A flock drops in from the sun, 
Another swirls in from the trees to the left.
Curling past each other
Spiraling in and out
Separating and joining
Sharing the same sky at different heights

Another group appears from the other direction
Joining the dance
Outliers fly over my head
Their wings golden, translucent in the sun.

I lift my arms and wave and dance with them, swaying.
Earth to rain motions with my arms mimic their flight.
The flocks lift above me, cycle apart like ram's horns,
Joining their kind in the November sky.
Namaste. I see you. I am with you.
