Tania Kitchin Poet Tritina

Backyard Entertainers

A yellow finch chirps a sweet melody
As black-capped chickadees steal the show
A blue jay circles in the air for food

Robins in the grass finding worms for food
As a red cardinal sings his loud mating melody
I watch out the window enjoying the show

Two hummingbirds at the feeder, putting on a show
Fighting until they stop to perch while sipping liquid food
Crows appear, cackling and squawking their own melody

I enjoy hearing the melody of birds while watching them put on a show searching for food.
