I was inspired by EE Cummings to write in his style for this poem.


I

one Fine-
morning    when the garden was misty-
ethereal the beauty
birds mellifluous

brouhaha   loud    and donnybrook

a   gang came
fluttering over the fence and
canoodled the flowers
sweetly

when the day was infinite serenity

the birds
lilting and murmuring
loud    and   donnybrook
and buzzingbees were buzzing

from jewel-toned and eye-catching blooms
oh
summer
and
   the
       sun-kissed

color-infused  birdies
loud
and
donnybrook

II

here    there
sweet butterflies
breathtaking
gamboling


delicate wings
always a-fluttering
insects
dilly-dally   flip-flopping

hummingbirds whirling
a black cat licks
his lips
whiskers twitching

sneaky shifty
lissome   fearless hunter
sneak-a-sneak
slithers

woosh    watch out hummingbirdie
with your pretty wings
fly away    fast
faster   and faster

for the cat is a hunter
the cat   hunts
the cat
quiet    and deadly
go
dancing
hummingbird
hummingbird

turning
twirling
         spinning

III

raven hair-tangled girl
                    gathering daisies
                                      pansies
wildflowers
And drip-dropping petunias
                    in this sun-drenched garden
stops to gongoozle
and a butterfly drifts-
                   upon the gathered-blooms
