HUMMING BIRDS AT THE FEEDER
Each Song A Phrase Of Chattering Color
Each Baby, Each Bird, Each Song, Each Mother
In A Fluttering Sip, A Game Paradise
While Each Bird Guards Its Merchandise.
A Fleet Of Peeps With A Fringe In The Sound,
Two Twice Encircled And Three Twice In Frown
The Hummingbird Carries Each Song In A Hurry
For A Chance To Drink In Momentous Fury.
A Wisp Of Warmth Carries Wings In The Sky
From The Morning’s Cool Air Til The Moon’s Starlit Rise
High Up In The Trees, Fickle And Fro –
That Is The Way The Hummingbirds Go.
