Hummingbird Constanza
Hummingbird Constanza
In the lazy days of summer
Buzzing life naps in cool shade
Ice clinks in glasses – lemonade!
To my garden darts a newcomer
Zooming from blossoms to feeder
Waiting in strong boughs of cedar.
Ruby-throated flying hummer -
Like the shadow in neon green
Fleeting sight of aerial sheen.
Tastes the nectar of midsummer
Honey imbued syrup savors
Delicate ambrosia flavors.
When crickets chirp, rests in slumber
Tiny wings finally resting
Often upside down - dreams nesting.
In the lazy days of summer
To my garden darts a newcomer
Ruby-throated flying hummer
Tastes the nectar of midsummer
When crickets chirp, rests in slumber.
