a loose haiku: to the honkers outside my window

honkers (read canadian geese)

i wonder if you've forgotten your chevron formation
because i see you still out there on the pond
the water must be getting cold by now
brrrrr, your feathers

i wonder if you'll be back again next year
when spring finds it's way back around
one thing is for sure, you bird
i won't miss seeing your poop on the ground
brrrr, your feathers

so take to flight, oh bird of the summer
find your way to a warmer home
i hear miami's nice this time of year
brrrr, your frozen daquiri on the beach
