Short Songsters Poems

The waking sunrise.
The songsters upon pine boughs;
Ah! Spring's morning song....

Yellow songsters chirp, 
Singing out their songs loudly;
Canary-speak, is sweet.

along a new
whispering palms path
a train
of songsters 
throated-ease
& thriving
on trumpet-songs....

dawn
songsters
trill sweet songs 
merry notes flow
through dales and hills
submerging hearts
in great joy
blissful
morn...

Wondrous be the songs which those loving hearts
do exclusively sing, just as the feathered
songsters do perform their morning songs which
greets the reinvigorated rousing day;
too billions of hearts sing their songs of love....

sounds 
so sweet 
regale me
in spring, wafting
not from devices,
but from trees where
songsters trill
lilting
tunes.

They will sing  a song, an invitation;
some believe there the devil's creation!
Indeed, they are huge monsters,
whales, yes great ocean songsters!
But the devil is not their relation!

dandelions sprout
earth is clad in green mantle~ 
songsters chirp on trees

at summer’s tail end
trees into rainbow hues turn~
leaves drop down feebly

snowflakes downward slide
like downy feathers landing~
a cheery vast void

Red-breasted songsters.
Overt territorials.
Blatantly jealous.
In springtime true battlers.
Nest in cosy teapots.

Eggs beautiful blue.
Gardeners friend, eating bugs.
Gulpping down worms too.

Bursting with songs full of joy.
Lasting from dawn to past dusk.
Unselfish parents feeding young.
Exceptional gardeners friends!...

wake up

arrogant bird
black velvet blot
calling now raucously down the wind
light is barely caressing the patch work hilltops
snow creeps minutely 
backing off from the slumbering valley

a new spring chorus will soon commence
you self inflated huckster
rush to grab the top most branch
arranging a choir of cacophony
out-sounding the melodious songsters  
attempting to mate
through the rusty gate imitations....

hers are paradise-measured steps
an escalation of the clan’s delight
in a sitting duck of the stream-lets;
& maidens awaken by the twilight
virgins of niger’s hidden chambers
meeting with ancient praise-singers;

“nduru has arrived! nduru is here!”
the echo of the clan’s piper rings
“o, she’s come! o, she’s here!”
seems with her a new life springs!
she: a clan’s fair-haired & elegant bird
with a retinue of songsters furtive & weird....

After the blasts of winter
Spring has come once again,
To clad the trees with leaves
To adorn empty spaces in blooms delight
To drown the lands in birds’ songs
To bring joy and cheer to uncounted hearts

I gaze upon the charming vistas around
This is the post hibernation phase
Life has sprung back with vigor
The songsters sing lulling melodies
In valleys, their songs euphoniously ring
Filling every heart with joy...
