Glared  aurora where
birds chirped and mist-covered and
your mind is creepy...

SATURDAY
The 10th of April
the sun rose
yawning
shadows stretched
as blinking winds moaned.
Night shifters scurried home
day shifters chirped.
A tired moon napped
in an evergreen.

When the loud thunder died, clouds open a smile with sunshine.

Raindrops danced upon blush of scarlet petals, cleansing the warm earth.

Sparrows chirped an explicit scene engaging melody.

As the blue jay chirped, 
         my sadness seemed to fade away;
                But she lost her voice.
             Melancholy days returned;
              Like a never-ending flood.

Fret not my friend for while you slept
Birds chirped and fish leapt.
Memories were made and promises kept.
People laughed and people wept.
Toward morning the sun slowly crept.
 A new day is dawning so please accept.
All these things happened while you slept....

As the heavens sang
The choirs belted
And the birds chirped
America went up in flames.

As boots marched in lines
Towards the sea of rage
A sea of people who once fought
For the land they now destroy.
  
It’s been a long time since I heard
The American Dream....

Limerick : Once a cute Little Lark laughed for a lark

Once a cute Little Lark laughed for a lark
And woke up the Bush Watchman in the dark
Man barked : « What’s so funny ? »
Lark chirped : « Look at Bunny ! »
Bush felt snails oozing up Bunny’s bark.

Little Buddy, Chick Daddy

Little buddy could cluck like a hen.
So, young biddies went running to him.
He would lift up his wings.
Come for warmth, he would sing.
Quickly chicks chirped, “Let chick-sitting begin!”

Infinite sorrows non-existent
life chirped in oblivion
halcyon days of childhood
unplanned outcomes were a hit
full-on Masti from dawn to dusk
until a voice boom into ur giggles
"You're grounded 4 a week"
a tiny moment of heartbreak,
erased again in no time with 
your favourite ice cream....

The postman blinked
The man winked
The pan burned
The girl learned

The bell rang
The boy sang
The leaf fell
Will the merchant sell?

The pipe banged
The chimes clanged
The woman shopped
The cook chopped

The bird chirped
A senior sang in church
The baker whisked
The file was on the disk...

The tree swayed
The lady paid
The duck swam
The crying lamb

The wave crashed 
Prices slashed
The sun shone
The ringing phone

The light dimmed
The tree was trimmed
The grass swayed in the relentless wind
The woman praying because she sinned

The flower bloomed
The pregnant womb
The bird chirped
The man worked....

Make hay!
Meant the macaw's epiphany
Coming in propinquity of the demesne
Pondering the erstwhile efflorescence of dalliance, she chirped
The bucolic redolent was everywhere, smelling petrichor in the air
This land is her home, she whistled with serenpidity
Harbinger of ephemeral life, she chattered: 
While the sun shines,
Make hay!...

I found a red barn in the forest
                 quiet and still
                      the door ajar to darkness

I walked through soft thicket
                      through red rotted door frame

And into the peace of total silence

Though the birds chirped
                      notes 
                                through my ears...

I was sitting in my gallery
Nurturing my plants, watering them
A little sweet sparrow arrived
And landed on my shoulder
I got alert so that she didn't fly away
I behaved like a statuette
She kissed me on my cheeks with her beak,
I was astonished,I said thank you , please come again on next week
She chirped in my ear
And went away far from here...

A summer wind came barging in
    to block two winter storms
  I just blew in, she chirped
    to keep you big boys warm

  The storms ramped up
    soon temperatures dropped
  The summer wind winced
    her initiative flopped  

  Back home the wind flew
    to sunny, tropical climes
  'Twas the last time she'd venture
    to block icy cool rhymes...

The ground was strewn with fragrant,
freshly cut grass,
blue sky shined like glass,
cool breeze stirred the willow tree,
birds chirped beneath the window panes,
loveliness for everyone to see,
houses surrounded by flower beds,
charming landscapes, a rich day,
regal in every way,
eyes can’t seem to turn away,
something glorious 
on this Trinity Sunday...

The sun rose to greet the day
and set a golden blaze across the sky.

The birds chirped theiir morning greetings
as I opened up my eyes.

The wind softly rustles through the trees
smelling of flowers and morning dew.

As I awoke to this view
my thoughts turned to you.

Good Morning friend

I hope that this day is one 
that's just as nice for you....

A chickadee flew up to me
And chirped out a request -
Please fill the backyard feeder
‘Fore I head back to my nest.

I had indeed put out some feed
But clearly not enough,
So other birds had polished off
The nuts and fruits and stuff.

I would have bet I’d never get
A message that’s been tweeted,
But I complied, for even birds
Get angry feeling cheated....

One sunny afternoon amid a snowstorm 
appeared a lovely rainbow.

A canary on a limb chirped a sweet tune, 
but he had no voice and was tone-deaf.

The small blind hound below witnessed 
the whole show.

If you doubt the story, call up the deaf 
mouse that’s studying to be a chef.

Lennon once chirped, 
all you need is love
and we believed him
but hate shot him dead
then we believed a little less-

Nothing has really changed 
we're a bipolar creed
glorious and devilish
all shades in between-

Lennon once chirped
all you need is love
but that's a bunch of B.S
what he really needed
was a little bit of luck
and a bullet proof vest-...

To fly by-
With feet on the ground
Its shows that you are here to stay
Grounded to the one

Our hikes into the mountains we stood together, firmly grounded to each other
Our hands clasped tightly together, 
letting each other know the love we have for them
Love birds singing our song, chirped along our trail
Our trail always leading to our love
In togetherness...

in the wild spring wind I found
      a bright blue door beyond steps
  and I opened it-

          a thousand birds chirped a song

An Observation
By: Tom
4-9-2006

The morning was chilled,
and the sun played peek-a-boo through the clouds.

A Cardinal chirped a song from atop it’s perch on a tomato cage, 
signaling to me that all was well at that moment,
Which was all I’ve been promised.

That day came to me as a blank canvas,
and God will hold me accountable
for each brush stroke that I placed thereon.
