This is such a beautiful poem. Getting so lost in the simpleness of nature that the intrusion of someone knocking on the door may not be heard...wow.
She has her moments of writing about "decay, decay and life", and then the pleasant interruptions of the birds' sounds pull her to a peaceful realm. All the actions seem balanced and harmonious. "Zen"
