Best Songbirds Poems
A World Without SongbirdsTo lose our songbirds would be so tragic,
for their tunes hold a special magic.
And nature’s music unburdens the heart,
providing ebbing souls with a jumpstart.
The robin's chirp heralds the melting snow,
as the goldfinch serenades the meadow.
And in the spring, flocks of chickadees sing,
nesting near houses...

My Songbirds and SquirrelsThe songbirds are plentiful where I live in the middle of oaks
I had four birdfeeders, but white tail deer slammed into them
Until they broke into bits, for they were plastic and did not survive
As they were being deer-bashed against the trunk of these oaks.
To discourage...

Angels Songbirds Sing With Me- -Angel’s songbirds awoke and flung the deal
Anisette chirps, sounds of reels
On that day my soul grew lyric
My heart couldn’t see it
Angels songbirds sing with me
And the harmonies never waiting
The sound singer souls singing
The song craft smiled
Ah, distinctly I was lullabying
And the hand claps never hymning...

A Story of SongbirdsSleep is a beautiful thing.
I have retired from my journeys.
When I wake in morning, I sing about the joy of life and living.
Bean Town begins their daily lives.
You hear all embracing the day.
You stop to enjoy and once heard, you start singing again about the...

Spring Is Sprung - For Songbirds ContestSpring Is Sprung
The daffies are ready to give us their best
The early spring sun gifting newfound zest
The chaffinch, the blue tit, the robin redbreast
Flit hither thither, all planning to nest
Skys, winter grey, hint at forthcoming blue
New shoots appearing where last year they grew
And soon there'll...

Songbirdssong birds so bright
wings in flight, a
sweet sight for me
swoosh, they are gone
back with song, when
it's dawn again

City Songbirds Versus Country SongbirdsThe city songbirds sing melodies shorter and faster
shorter and faster, shorter and faster.
Their singing is annoyingly high-pitched,
A squeak, a peep, shrill, abrupt.
Their country cousins do not recognize their language
Singing more slowly, their melodies are relaxed and easy
Their songs are pretty, a tribute to butterflies.
A lilting...

SongbirdsSing!
Little bird, cause you’re free
Darlin’ you’re a vagabond just like me
Sing!
Birdie, cause your soul can’t be
Caged it soars like my own
Sing!
Songbird, cause you’re meant to fly
In the endless sky
Sing!
Soulbird, cause you’re home is in every tree
And your perch in every tower.
Sing!
Bird, cause you’re song...

Song Birds
Birdsong clings to the oak, birch and pine as butterflies dance across fresh petals with delight at the sigh of nectar bees sip like white wine. ~ by Poet
Birds, in bright, brilliant apparel
Harbingers of the season
Delighting rhythms of laughter,
Gentle hope and sweet compassion
Breathtaking collections of...

Spring's Song
Joy, breathless joy, sings to the robin, spring
Coloring hearts and heavens in wonder
Delighting souls with dazzling hues to bring
Raining light through lives who love the thunder
Despite miracles and peace, the flowers
Spring’s breath silences the glistening kiss
Winter’s echoes evoke pulsing showers
Darkening the dreams – spring isn’t...
