Open Air

Sitting outside on the back porch,
I watch the birds
there’s an open view beyond my lawn
I don’t have a fence, just wild trees with small birds
past our trees, there’s a hillside with bare trees across the road
and up above I can see the large birds
high, high up above
there are big birds floating
flying on the air currents
I envy their view
for they can see from up there
and they look relaxed
without moving their wings,
they are circling around in the blue sky with white wisps
I love the space they have
and I feel the open air down here too

I am tired; my heart is
sick and sad. From where
the sun stands I will fight
no more forever."
