Hummingbird

The hummingbird is back this year In such a tiny body so much beauty Are you the same one as last year? Or are you the son or daughter As you stop in mid flight To look into my eyes I am startled Perhaps you are wondering the same thing Am I the same human? You stop at the flowers and then the feeder You are full so you fly away Singing the oddest song I’ve ever heard before you land on a distant tree Where do you sleep at night my friend? Do you rest long enough to doze? Away from humans and bigger birds? In the smallest nest I’m sure I sit and wait for you wishing you here Sometimes its like you hear me As you quickly appear When you look into my eyes and mine in yours I feel a bond between us Do you feel it too? Summer is over and you disappear Not sure where you go Maybe not meant to know I miss you my friend
