I Saw You Hovering
I saw you hovering
outside in mid air,
I ran to get my camera
then you weren't there.
I waited for a few minutes
for you to come back,
straight to the feeder you flitted
intelligence, you didn't lack.
I snapped a few pictures
but they turned out blurry,
I tried my best to keep calm
and to not be filled with fury.
I've waited a long time
since I moved into my new home,
to get pictures of a hummingbird
now every day, outside I will roam.
Now I've got pictures
I'm going to print a few,
frame them and put them all over my walls
no more need to feel blue.

I am definitely going to print a few pictures and hang them all over my walls. I had a busy day today trying to get my housework done, but something was telling me to look outside and when I did, I saw a hummingbird go to my feeder.
