Reverberations

.
Reverberations of roosters' crows

                                through the hollow of opposing hills

The cymbal section of nature's band


Singing male Mockingbird such varied notes
                                
                                     Answer by a female but her tune is always the same

Noooooooooo!!

He answers cu-----te, pur___ty, come Here~~er~er

The same answer from her nooooooo!!!

Another female flys up and lands on the fence
 
                                            nesting material in her mouth

She was lured away by someone's call____

This foggy morn, nice, cool, a few minutes on the porch

                                  Then responsibility to complete today's work since I answered someone's call_____

Tremendous, a highly sophisticated sound system nature is! And you have described it so perfectly through some glorious birds, especially the mockingbird! I like how you ended this piece, with you being one that answered a call yourself! Very clever my friend, very clever! Great Work!!
