In the still bitter chill of the winter white
Busy is the Blue Jay in his taking
Naked limb to naked limb dancing
Squawking for the spare of this season’s bounty
Busy is the Blue Jay in his taking
Watching his big want for so little
Squawking for the spare of this season’s bounty
And the Lake gives her flat stare to the grey sky
Watching his big want for so little
In the day rise of cold grey austerity
And the Lake gives her flat start to the grey sky
The only flick of blue is this bird flitting
In the day rise of cold grey austerity
A blue bird relentless in his scavenge
The only flick of blue is this bird flitting
Perched am I watching from frosted window
A blue bird relentless in his scavenge
Naked limb to limb dancing
Perched am I watching from frosted window
In the still bitter chill of winter white
