Arturo Michael Poet Verse

In a Circle of Life

Black beak pointing direction Sky

Tail gauging air

Wings fluttering on high

It's got prize in its eyes

From take off to arrive  

Fly little Birdie

Ride the winds of your heart's desire


Black Beak focusing freedom’s alive 

Chart a Course of survival 

One day we'll shall die

Smell the scent of the World

Watch nature unfold

Fly little Birdie 

Go humming from Flower to Soul

CayCay Godwin January 6, 2019 at 4:37 PM Hummingbird's can be captivating and fascinating, and stir one's muse into a write. I've never seen one other than when feeding, hovering in defiance of gravity and it is an awesome defiance. Your write is on point, stirring hummingbird wonderment in me and others. Poetry hugs ... CayCay Arturo Michael January 7, 2019 at 7:30 AM It is amazing to this day, even though I've been watching them all my life...All the best CayCay for 2019

Brandy Nicole January 5, 2019 at 9:59 PM The freedom to fly, truly makes one feel alive. The hummingbird, certainly is one of God's amazing creatures. It is the circle of life, to live and then die. Your thoughts lift my heart. ~ Brandy Arturo Michael January 7, 2019 at 7:26 AM One thing for sure is that...We come we go...in between is what matters...All the best for 2019

Caren Krutsinger January 4, 2019 at 10:16 PM "ride the wind your heart desires" is for sure the best advice of all, as "one day we'll all die." Sage poem, well written. There seems to be a urgency to "go humming from flower to soul" and I understand this. Arturo Michael January 5, 2019 at 6:43 AM I guess in some ways it's the nature of life...depends how you look at it...Happy 2019 to you...

Jennifer Proxenos January 4, 2019 at 10:11 PM Your poems Arturo are all straight from the heart. Yes, we will all die one day and the truth hit me on Wednesday night when I landed in hospital with food poisoning and my bed was between two lovely but very sad ladies who were both dying with cancer. Going to visit them today! Poetry wishes, Jennifer. Arturo Michael January 5, 2019 at 6:45 AM Wow...A rough start to the year...the good part is you made some friends...a blessing....Happy 2019 Jennifer...Keep good girl...

Heidi Sands January 4, 2019 at 2:30 PM So beautiful Arturo! Happy New Year. I hope it is filled with happiness and peace :) Arturo Michael January 5, 2019 at 6:49 AM Happy 2019 Heidi...I'm recovering from a flu...a little hard start for the year...but much better already...
