HUMMINGBIRDS OUTSIDE MY WINDOW by Fiona Goodwin

The hummingbirds are at play today
They don’t have Covid or taxes
I’m guessing they don’t worry about the future
They certainly don’t have unemployment benefit
I don’t think they worry about their purpose
They hover outside my window
Beauty suspended in motion
They feed their babies
That’s mostly what they care about
But in the meantime
I am blessed by their presence in this moment
Please stay a while longer.
