Happiest Times

The frantic birds' conversation
begins and ends in birdspeak.
They trill, they
flit, they fly.
Barely landing long enough 
to call it a land, and then
they fly again.

A small gray feathery creature, so
small, methinks she might be a
hummingbird.  flies over my 
satisfied sun-pressed body, where
I lie in the grass, a voyeur.  

Happiest times are when the sun has 
followed the birdspeak
into thy yard.

Thank you, Andrea. I appreciate it. You are always utterly kind, even though I can tell by your beautiful poems, you are always thinking.
