1 As much as you hate unsolicited advice, I've got say that if you depend on weeds flowering in the newly turned and fertilized soil to remember where you put them, then 1) you should probably find a better way to dispose of the bodies, and 2) you at least need to bury them a little deeper.

2 Oh, wait. "Birdies" not "bodies".

Nevermind.

4 You know, I also read it as "bodies". In Russian slang the bodies found when snow starts to thaw were called "podsnezhniki" ("snowdrops"): nominally the word for flowers that blossom as soon as ground gets exposed).

5 Don't worry, Steven, SOME of your readers know "Springtime in Brooklyn."

The Brooklyn National Anthem:

"De spring is sprung,
De grass is riz;
I wunneh wear de flowers is.
De boid is on de wing --”

"Absoid! De wing is on de boid!”
