Watching the apple tree buds open

Late Saturday night,
We sat out back,
And watched the apple tree buds open.

The night sounds clear in the newly warm air,
The birds and creatures stirred afar.

The swallows came back Saturday last,
And the bugs came just before them.

Did they know the bugs would be here then?
Those long distance masterful flying machines?

Or are they just a part of a master plan
Like the apple tree buds late Saturday night,
That we watch open.
