In the Yellow Morning

In the yellow morning-
My binoculars, high up
In a tree-was I a sleep
Climber? Out on the silvery
Deck, beyond the forest
Glass, a Downy pooed
On my shoulder. A
Tiny wet newspaper.
I carefully read this:
"Empty what is full.
Fill what is empty."
The faded flags flapped,
The feeder swayed, and
Charcoal feathers shimmered.
