I Saw the Bluebirds

I Saw The Bluebirds I saw the bluebirds flying into love nesting in those trees high above The owls were hiding in the same tree awaiting night to fly about so free! The woodpecker was pecking, pecking away was he happy, who can ever say? The mockingbird was just singing loud knew it's beautiful calls, so very proud! The blackbirds flew in as a big flock giving the other birds quite a shock The crow cautiously flew to another spot one far more calm and not so very hot! The robins stayed low in the green brush slipped about so silently in a low hush I saw the bluebirds quietly watching it all sitting on that nest for the very long haul! R.J. Lindley O5, 16, 1979 This from long ago. I once visited those woods weekly. Went there for solitude and to enjoy the sheer beauty that Nature so bountifully offered! Those beautiful woods were cut down in the mid 90's.. So many beautiful spots destroyed forever. Such old growth forests take several hundred years to regenerate. And even then can not reproduce what Nature had created in tens of thousands!
