"I watch the birds
eating the seeds
of discontent"
I like the mix with the new and familiar.
I am not crazy about "gal" for some reason, seems too old fashioned for this poem? I don't know. Just my feeling. :)

Another brilliant poem, my love. excellent excution. Aa wonderfull play on words.
I think gal is fine. I'm your woman/I'm your girl: neither of these sound right.
I really like the last phrase: But don’t take
too long, the days are growing shorter by the minute.
A powerful, sad sense of time passing!
