The birds at dawn.THE BIRDS AT DAWN Dawn birds are guilty by association with lovers, rogues, insomniacs and thieves. The nestlings call in blind annunciation and move the oak to shuffle in its leaves. Now the rain comes, pecking at the boards. Who whistled for the sun and got the rain? They pitch their song to what the day affords, as day comes tapping in with cup and cane. --Jack Flavin flavin: see coenzyme. flavin Any of a class of organic compounds, pale yellow biological pigments that fluoresce green.
