We give thanks for abundant food,
for outdoor tables
and careless eaters.
Thanks, too, for the generosity,
the thoughtfulness of back yard feeders
and little old ladies.
Protect us all from prowling cats,
from bigger birds and windows
that look like open sky.
Grant us the humility to accept
the voice you gave us
and not to rankle
at the song of the robin.
