- So Quiet Small Angels -

I find myself whispering On my bird feeders small winter bird are eating They enjoy present meal in peace So beautiful they are Their chest in yellow, orange and green Tiny, tiny feet and hungry stomach They do not think about Christmas rush A little song of the wind crossing the plains I just spend some time in silence listening to a song from my small angels 12.12.2014 A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved

Hi Anne Lise. Angels come in many different forms and can bless us when we need them. I feel the peace that the little birds brought to you. Very lovely, my friend..... Robert.

Precious poem, Anne Lise. I, too, love to watch the birds. My husband makes suet cakes for them, which brings the woodpeckers, the snowy, the downy, the ladder-back, the nuthatch, even the redheaded. How priceless it is to watch them eat.

Anne Lise, so sweet and beautifully simple and stunning! I have a little batch of dovies I put seed out for each morning...some are so small that I think they must be very young! They are little angels! Thank you for commenting on my poem "Discounted"; means so much me that you liked it!

What a beauty you have painted dear friend. How sweetly you have weaved the feelings of the birds in your poem cum song. I had placed a Video on my You Tube channel 'The Secret Story of Mulberry birds' which tells the same story as you have woven in these few lines. If you ever have some time please watch this 20 M short V. film on birds & their songs with a small secret story. Hope you would also like my new poem cum song placed today Anne. Love and best wishes for a Merry Christmas.....Ravindra K Kapoor

Hello Anne-Lise, This is a most special and wonderful write. I really like the final two verses: "I just spend some time in silence listening to a song from my small angels." Its good to slow down and sometimes just concentrate on the most simple and wonderful things. I've watched little birds too ever so often. We humans are not always the ones with the answers. Mother Nature is much bigger than all of us. A "7"+++++ on this one and a FAV!! Best Wishes, Gary
