A Cheery Morning Serenade

An early spring morning is greeted with a robin’s song
A delightful chorus inviting other songbirds to sing along
In his chorus of “cheery, cherry, tut, tut” sounds
From a robin happily singing and dancing on the ground

A chickadee perches at the feeders to watch the show
And stops to eat some seeds before letting his music flow
He sings his chorus of “chick -a dee-dee-dee-dee-dee”
And continues his chirping for all the other songbirds to see

A red cardinal starts to sing to make his presence known
With a loud “cheer, cheer, cheer, tweet- cheer” not to be out shown
He’s perched high on a tree branch in vibrant feathers for all to see
His mate now lands on his branch and joins his chorus perfectly

A tufted titmouse is now perched on the bird feeder pole
Singing “peter, peter, peter” sounds as his loud whistles roll
Now the birds have all left after their cheery morning serenade
Hopeful tomorrow may bring another delightful songbird parade

A cheery morning serenade is something I look forward to every morning since I'm always awake before dawn, so I fully appreciate your wonderfully written lines as a fave.
