Best Bird Of Night Poems

Twilight comes in lavender hues
   And beckons the moon to arise
  The owl is there each sound to hear
    The night's alive, its song ensues
 Fireflies in flight, glows of delight
   Blinking through wooded avenues
 In the...

the flutter of little wings
pulsating in a windless dusk
as i watch the setting sun
glissade across the florid sky
its cerise glow reflecting prismatic
burst of colors on this little bird
as it sips the last of nectar
before darkness arises

my thoughts drifting
into night's allure
as the full moon rises
above tangerine...

I am keeper of the midnight clock
A watchful eye, when darkness peaks
With one eye closed to mock your sleep,
The other eye revolves to keep
the world in check 'till morning breaks

They often wonder where I hide
when evening shadows stretch out long
My saucer eyes, will search the...

Did you hear the night bird call
as Summer tumbled into Fall
and leaves piled up against the wall,
it's then you miss her most of all.

Did you hear the night bird sing
as Winter tumbled into Spring
though flowers bloom, no joy they bring,
her absence colors everything.

Did you hear...

Please don’t ruffle my feathers
It is very rude when you stare
I have the most sensitive hearing
And I know you are lurking there

I mainly venture out at night
For I really am quite shy
Many people don’t even see me
For I don’t make a noise when I fly

My...

Along the feathered edge,the red sun sets,
Birds go back to their home like jets.
Sunflower loses sight of sun,
Animals sing lullabye to their son.

Sunset makes the sky go pink,
Its the most beautiful sight you could ever think.
All the flowers close their petals,
It is as good as...

Mockingbird,  you  sing  to  me  each  morn 
And throughout the day since you were born. 

You alone can understand the words 
Imitating  frogs  and  other  birds. 

You  perch  high  on  my...

Cardinals sang on the snowy branches,
So scarlet against the dark black night,
As the trees performed ghostly dances,
When the red planet Mars was in sight.

So scarlet against the dark black night,
The birds looked lovely under the moon,
When the red planet Mars was in sight,
And drifting to...

scintillating night
purple wisteria hang-
two lovebirds nestle

You float and soar the skies
riding the winds thermals
vast oceans you travel
majestic and mysterious

Thought by mariners of old
to be a harbinger of death
the sight of you a sign of doom
a bird bringing ill fate

How could anything so beautiful
have earned such ill repute
yet mariners feared you...

Moonlight filters through the tree limbs
Leaving silhouettes of night phenomena
Just above the curb of the road there hymns
The guffawing of a nocturnal feathered fauna

Wearing a mask of colorful plumage
With eyes so round and bright they glimmer
Showing the readiness of true courage
The shadow bird is definitely...

Gates open, to the
intoxicating
sweet scented fragrance
slipping into a
trance, encountering
a mosaic of
colours, shouting in
ecstasy,
embracing nature
and summer.
When mother nature
presents the fruits of
her spring labour,
it's filled with movement,
birds  nesting,
calls of crickets, and
frogs fill the night air.
A camouflage of
natural world
gleaning fruiting fields,
vines, shrubs, trees,
and flowering plants
Goldenrod
and milkweed
hosting an...

On a dark evening,
          An owl is perched on
            a tree limb, big wise
         eyes observe the...

This is the kind of creature that goes out into the night to steal bricks to build its' niche.
It more than crosses a courtesy line. Happens more in  the winter;other seasons just fly by.
Swift as the bitter wind the creatures must move as the...

Initiated by a fairy tale
of elf hobgoblins who lived in a dale

Jack Robbins stayed alert throughout the night
Sat looking through his window by moonlight

He saw his swing hanging from the oak tree
Without a breath of wind, slowing moving free

Then a black shape materialised
Forming into a...
