What do you think this poem is about?

The birds of a winter evenings

The unmoving of the air sings the midwinter sigh
Trees being unheard veils of the summer memory
Their thin rhythm hold the alighted evening notes
A suggested whisper in the dusk sky emptiness

These bird placed improvisations lilting with some aria
In the fabric of the turning seasons slumber
A winter air lullaby a roosted moments harmony
To the wan sun and the year's setting
