The chirps of blue jays fill my garden, The colors, grace and flights keep me smitten, They are not like peacocks of the east or the parrots of amazon, But who cares, beauty is my inner perception. The constant food search of birds gives me a good lesion, Even if you try hard but don’t succeed makes you a winner, The search for straw and hay to make their nest makes my day, Anticipation of their nest with chicks keep my heart fluttering away. I watch my blue jay picking a cherry from the big cherry tree, Enjoying the fruit while spending whole lot of time to get the seed out and away, The fruits of labor make us happy after difficult work day, Enjoying the good and discarding the bad ought to be the norm of the day. Einstein said look deep into the nature then you will understand everything better, Nature engulfs us like air, we usually ignore it, Just take a rose bud, watch its beauty and intricate patterns, Rejuvenate your mind with thoughts and wisdom of creation.

How descriptive and beautiful is this write. I love the flow of your words and how you’ve painted imagery and so many lines in this especially “ the fruits of labor makes us happy after difficult work day” so much depth in just that line too: very thoughtful and soulful write , i enjoyed reading this
