During a pause in the rain

neighbor’s rooster crowing.

Rooster crowing,

setting moon through pines--

I wake to a poem.

April 7: Rooster

The friend I was staying with complained about a neighbor's rooster that begins to crow every day at 5 a.m. But though I listened, all I heard were doves cooing, woodpeckers at the feeder, a trilling junco...

Somewhere a rooster crows
but all I hear
is my own heart beating.
