Spring Starlings 
 
In early spring
starling silhouettes 
glide, arch and dive like a pageant of skaters
or schools of fish traversing currents. 
 
The birds paint van Gogh curves
before they are erased as they 
blend into black branches that
bend in wind like
ballerinas’ arms above their heads.
Natures lava lamp mesmerizes.
 
Across the road 
autos go slow
          fast
          straight
turn right
          left.
 
Can we fly with the grace of starlings?
