Notes About The Poem

Harbinger Birds of Spring Potd

With the incoming sounds of spring, a resurrection of life, the chilliness flees. Quote _ by Poet Ready for a new season, Spring birds Shake off winter; embracing The bonniest warmness weather, Babies born, and color of nature's crowns. Scarlet Tanagers chatter, flying round, Feasting on caterpillar’s slowness And beetles boring away that are found; whilst Eternal sunlight reft through sturdy limbs And myriad leaves of the mighty old oak; Rapid rhythm clatter drum sounds Of the Woodpecker on its breast shout. A hum, a garden faintly woo a smile At song sung by pretty red feather Robin dancing. A sweet kiss, a seed, the male Cardinal Feeds his blush pretty mate favor. Yonder pond, tree boughs Teasing the water's edge Whilst Little Mallard ducklings Follow mamma to the bank. Bluebird builds her nest Right in the heart of the sprouting Redbud flowering tree. Camouflage in the red begonia An orange breasted Oriole With its sweet enchanting sound. On the horizon the fire fades out, Hush around in high perch, tiny roosting Cold blue moon comes into sight. 2/26/2021 Poetry Contest: Spring Birds Sponsored by: Constance La France

Wonderful verses Eve, so inspiring, so deep, and heart-touching. Eternal sunlight reft through sturdy limbs And myriad leaves of the mighty old oak; Rapid rhythm clatter drum sounds Of the Woodpecker on its breast shout. Thanks for sharing your nice thoughts and deep feelings.
