snowbirds

the weather must be turning

couple sitting in the corner

playing whist & solitaire

drinking

coffee & brandy

coffee & a tia

later pints of Estrella

have gone now

the snowbirds have flown

back home

to where the frosts & snow

have finally gone

they will be here next year

playing whist & solitaire

drinking coffee & brandy & a tia

estrellas when the sun gets high

soaking up winter warmth

in this foreign place

so far from where

they call home
