We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.
The "time for singing" can also be referring to "the time for pruning" - or it can be referring to a type of songbird, because the verse continues with "the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land".
In another month or so European birds will start passing through Israel on their way back north. This usually coincides with Passover.
