Peacocks

Preening trains of iridescent blues and greens spread to full boast

Exquisite eye markings with blue, red and gold jewels foremost.

Adored by man, lots were made pets over thousands of years spread.

Corruption creeps need only take trains that are annually shed.

Only males are true Peacocks, females are called Peahens and they

Choose mates based on color and eyes displayed in male fans surveyed.

King of skies, their size makes them one of the largest flying birds.

Strikingly stunning, these birds are amazing visual stirs.

It is amazing to see them up in trees because you would think them too heavy to fly. We have many here in different parks and they are truly remarkable as this poem is CayCay. This is a beautiful acrostic and entry for the contest. I miss visiting with you. We shale have to chat soon. Have a great week! xxoo

Thank you for the glorious lesson of beauty! My fave singer, in childhood years, Donny Osmond masked as a peacock on The Masked Singer. :)
