Cacophonous ... Tweeters

Today's word is "cacophonous" ... kuh-KOF-uh-nuhs ... having a harsh or discordant sound. (Dictionary.com)

Tweeters
The birds are back in town,
Singing in the trees,
With cacophonous songs,
They're always waking me.

But this is still better,
Than snow up to my knees,
Or sitting in my sweater,
Trying not to freeze.

So, here is to bright spring,
Where warmth comforts old bones,
And birds take over trees,
Singing in loud tones.
