Crescendo

Placid winter cuddles close, lacing exotic spring.
Tapestry of flowers, birds in heavenly wings.
Wakes up a green canopy, exalted in chirpy trill
Peeps, cheeps in rhythm, clatter in medley thrill.

Dappled throat, bright feather, flitters branch to branch.
Gyrating chest in trees, notes perch in avalanche
Tra la la.. chick a dee dees cheer, orchestra in chorus. 
Red blue Robin, Cardinal...songbirds..so gorgeous.  

Songs of love, waddling dance, bugles of  mating calls.
Titillating tunes, virulent envy, conceals clever eyeballs.
Nuzzling beaks love wives and chicks, "its my territory."
Crescendo of man and bird..isnt it the same love story?



------------------///------------////--------------///-----------///---------
It is established that songbirds sing with the 
objective of attracting  female mating partners
and also to broadcast their range of territories.
