Two Hummingbirds
Two hummingbirds taking turns
Sipping nectar from the trumpet vine
A radiant orange and fresh perfume carried them this far
Their wings humming the happiest tune
Harmoniously they sing with glee
Each tender flower gently nibbled every so jubilantly
“Come back another day my friends,” whispered the aged widow
“Please return tomorrow!”
“As I sit here upon my porch swing, your presence erases my echoing sorrow”
“Come back again little friends”
“I am looking forward to tomorrow”
