For the Birds

A rather randy mallard duck
Was causing all the hens to cluck
Around about dawn
Along came a swan
With a bigger bang for the buck

So you don't like my poetry?
You think it's for the birds?
Well that's ok 'cause I don't like birds
on my car they leave their turds.

Today I’m thankful for the birds 
Who…as to the tree limbs they cling…
know we must be part of the silence 
If we want to hear them sing.

My greatest deed when I am done
These joyous laps around the sun
Above all acts of charity
Beyond all art and poetry

New leaves on the trees is nature at its best,
Clothing a tree previously undressed.
Standing tall, blowing in the wind,
A home for the birds, like a dear friend.

Flower Girl

Flower Girl
Special day
Gentle curl
Fragrant bouquet
Soft spoken words
Adorned with lace
Seed for the birds
Smiles crown her face

On the green hill
I could not see
The tree
For the birds
Beyond the rock
Ledge
I could not see
The ......fish
Abundance
Once was natural
Is now reduced
To memory.

Premium Member Grateful

My haven
the garden
close to heaven
almost eden
with its weeds
to break a back
the apple tree in bloom
will give roten fruits
for the birds to enjoy
as my eyes look at the red lure
and resist the picking.

Across the universe

Across the universe
The birds 
That my father
Made many years
ago
Before he made man
After that he made
The universe
For the birds 
To fly
After that 
He made the ocean
For the birds
To feed themselves
Some food

The Birds and the Bees

Two virgin lovers, now have learned
A lesson they wish they had spurned
Of the birds and the bees
His poor carpet burnt knees
Next time, to the bed they adjourned

Bird Perosis

Bird Perosis

If bird perosis 
Can be fierce and ferocious;
Also atrocious.

Jim Horn

Go ahead and google word
or bing with each string to
learn what perosis is all
about.

PS. It is only for the birds
and found in them

For the Birds

In each and every passing hour 
In every bloom and wilted flower
A shining moment's quick demise
Without a witness magic dies
Here and gone the magnificent goes silently
While dramatic things of less import
Captivate us violently

Premium Member All She Wrote

She gave them heart, gave them soul
She gave them art, something whole,
For me, for you, for whom it may concern
She sought to pursue a page to turn,
For the birds, or for some reader's throat
Meaningful words, were all she wrote.

Premium Member THANKFUL FOR THIS OLD BIRD PROVERB

Today I’m thankful for the birds and this old bird proverb
with all the wisdom to us it brings:

A bird sitting on the branch of a tree is never in fear of the branch breaking
because her trust is not in the branch
her trust is in her wings.

For the Birds - a Tribute To Alfred Hitchcock

Children in the schoolhouse
Chant a structured, uneasy song
“Risseldy-rosseldy
Mow-mow-mow"
Monkey Bars behind a bench...
She nervously lights a cigarette
Something is about to happen
A single crow lands.
