Poem Of The Day, December 30, 2024

Sponsor, Mark Toney, theme birds, Featured 02/08/2025

kathy goff art

Outside my window lives a chickadee, he loves snowy green pine, and has a family of about twenty-three; he loves the snow and falling snowflakes divine, and each morning the whole family sing for me. Sometimes they scatter on clamous whirling wings, off to a park nearby, my heart is sad for their songs are like violins; then, the beat of their wild swirling wings multiply, they have brought home many, many friends I sigh. On warmer days I bring them some seeds, I put the seeds on my hand, and am always in awe with their fluttering speeds; I love each created by God delicate painted band helping the birds helps me to grow and transcend. They huddle together when it is very cold, at times they lift a foot, I think God not only gave them beauty but a soul; each morning I must go to my window to have a look I find them twittering, and tweeting in a clamour bruit.

Birds are such lovely creations of God. You are fortunate to have the sight of the lovely bird through your window every day. I too love watching birds. Your poem is able to create a sweet and tender feel in any one who loves birds. Let the Chickadee sit on the pine and sing for you everyday. Congratulations on your well deserved POTD. Dear Constance, wish you a New Year of joy and peace.
