A Birdhouse Renovated
Many birdhouses seen
In the different shape
On a backyard fence
In different colors
The squirrel is searching
For a place to nest
One squirrel chased a bird
From the fenced birdhouse
The squirrel ate the eggs
A mother bird laid
Then when shew was done
The squirr4el got busy
She enlarged the hole
She made it bigger
Then the squirrel decided
To make another
Entrance to the house
She chewed a

A Place To Go
Hammer and nails
And pine and paint,
Made by hands ...
Earns no complaint
A roof and walls
Not much more,
A hole in the wall
Is my front door
Put there for me
... A place to go,
Just to get out of
The rain and snow
Home sweet home
In a rustic realm,
Hidden up and away
... In a shady elm
One safe haven

Alone they chirp they

Birdhouse
I made a birdhouse out of wood
My father taught me how
“If you can help a bird you should
They’ll have a place to live now”
So I banged the wood together
Jays moved in right away
Now they sleep there in bad weather
and come out on clearer days
What my father failed to mention
Or maybe didn’t know
These blue jays crave

We Live In a Birdhouse
My husband and I live in a birdhouse the woman said.
I was amused when I met her scrawny necked husband.
He was built like an ostrich with a rear that stuck out.
And long skinny legs, that reminded me of most birds.
I wish he did not wear those striped socks, she said.
I thought their birdhouse was more

A Birdhouse In the Flower Garden
A birdhouse hanging
On a metal pole
In the flower garden
I wonder if a bird
Has made it a home
If the bird built a nest
Or if the birdhouse is
empty

Tale of a Messy Birdhouse
Written about all there is to write about
Covered all the important issues
Except one, haven't written about a birdhouse
Or the bird poop that always ensues
Don't these guys have any class at all
No appreciation for what we do
Providing a home through all kinds of weather
Come on, show some tact or adieu
Your kind are not welcome round this

Frog In a Birdhouse
As our time slowly slips away,
I dream of you every night and day,
alone at home,
away with him
all alone .
Feeling empty, lonely and
dismayed.
Then our time came to pass,
Our hearts and love jumped
will last and last
together again, no time apart
not alone
not apart.
Each holding the others heart.
We touch and love
for hours and hours on end
making love
caressing
