My Lil Special Guest

It popped 
in as if to say 
hello
my birdie buddy all sweet and 
mellow
Dressed in a downy gold gown 
of yellow
I tried to cheep in tune, join its 
song to say
'welcome my chirping lil fellow 
Oh my it sang then like a 
feathered cello!

So Soupers hi and hello
and twitter tweet tweet
May you find this short 'n' 
sweet sweet
This was about my winged 
guest of honor
What shall I call her, Eileen O' 
Connor?
It's birdsong is my very favourite music
Nature 's natural melodies so harmonic 

(contest, 'sweetest touches of verse)

I enjoyed your poem and had a laugh too. Nice fun poem with good rhyme, as Im from Ireland the names Eileen and O'Conner are very common, Eibhlin is the Irish Gaelic spelling of the name....(pronounced EVELIN.)
