Beautiful Birds
Hawk-like shrills blue jay foreshadowing majestic fierceness
As robins scurry to protect their young
flying frantically to and from the nest
The jays advancing while battle cries are sung
Our first sign of spring with the red/orange breast
bravely defending against the unwanted guest
Petite chickadee
is joined by male cardinal
sharing a feeder
Round white-cheeked friend with black cap
with red-plumaged pretty boy
Four birds beautiful on their own
flying together where I call home
