Bird Series III PEACOCKS

Brian Strand's

Honorable Mention!

Prince Pastoral Peacock it must be our lucky day Elect to spread your plumage erect a fine display Pivot proudly a tailpiece of fancy feathers fanning A crest of blue-green eyes omniscient panning And to watch you step with such cadence Pleased to make your regal acquaintance Leucistic yellow morphs pale palettes like Lady Peahen It’s what you ladies are called if you’re a peacock hen Pearlescent white wisps a breathtaking bride’s gown Feathered fur flow accessory accents a diamond crown Blushingbrides tail in tow, did you pack a bridal trousseau? Parade before your castle please and I shall bow if so

Dearest Anaya, Ohhhhh I love the parade of peacock splendor where each line struts with color, wit, and natural wonder. It is funny their regal theatrics of courtship, along with the dazzling feather-fan, and even the subtle elegance of the leucistic peahen just how these displays are both art and ritual in nature. Ohhh so joyful, imaginative glimpse into the world of peafowl royalty where your words truly make the feathers dance! Spring Blessings, My Dear Anaya, Daniel

My aim was to write buoyantly bright and bouncy, as a playful lyrical. I see you've done research as well or were you reaching into your vast resevoir of knowledge sweet poet. I'm through with a dark period--phase, I may induldge into a powder-blue phase or vanity as contests call for :) have a nice day, dr.!

Your ode to a peacock is so vivid in its description - the choice of words you have used create such a perfect image of this wonderful bird... excellent poem

A delightful flight of fancy honoring our flightless fine feathered friends. You should be as proud as a peacock to have penned this clever and informative tribute. Buoyuant words soar! Thanks a million for enhancing my tongue-in-cheek narrative by adding the theatrical voice over. What a hoot!
