And The Sky Finally Opened

Up there on bare
branches of wintering trees
turkey buzzards
alight at close of day,
spread their wings
toward last sun.
Wheeling in, some miss,
blown aslant mid-turn
by gusting wind.
Buzzards and clouds
part a shuttered sky,
revealing a brilliant
blue scrim flown
in, ending Act III.
