Wren goes in cat door in garage

cat flap in garage is frequented by a wren
as if she owns the place, she hops right in
this is day two, that I have seen this sight.
If a cat is inside there, she is not so bright.

wrens crowd the feeder
awaiting their finest chance ~
seeds strewn all over

On A Spring Flight

In hasty beats, rhythms so sweet
Wrens soar and chase, crooning softly
Such gentle pleasures, with a ready tweet
Robins climb through the skies, rising
Over the mountains, their wings greet
Flying high, laughing proudly across the peaks

The Wren

Lonely lies to myself 
A string of hope 
Clung to, hung to 
Like the rope I'll use 
When the time it comes 
A soaring, sweet release 
But for now, 
My only release 
Is this pen. 
Until it comes, 
The wren.

64, Many More for Wren!

64, Many More for Wren
We belatedly sing,
Uncork a bottle of wine,
For Jen “Teetotaling”,
We imbibe Jen Joy sunshine!
Annapolis is gaining as less “NYing”,
Jen Wren for out loud “Whinin’”,
Rick & you go out dining,
Listen to music that’s fine,
On the Bay, enjoy sailing,
To Darby, Rickie & Sean be benign,
Worse than a NY storm is taxi hailing,
Dress to the 9’s, with Rick align,
Parachuting, Mountain scaling,
64 is only the beginnin’,
Know when tight roping,
C# or B Flat endnin’,
Light a candle, Offkey singing,
Barbara & I Luv Yah without margin!

Wren

A Carolina Wren
bobs and weaves
inside a ring of sunlight.

It is shadow boxing,
but there are no shadows

yet it still jabs and moves.

A boxer
fights the shadow of himself.

Garden Wren

 
in my garden amidst the flowers and hanging baskets
I notice a wren bouncing around, busy, eating, exploring
the bird does not stand out but blends in with brownish hues
you usually have to look close to see a little garden wren

you cannot entice them with seeds, no way, they want worms
even a bug will do, oh, they do like suet hanging from a tree
they will do knee bends and bob their heads when disturbed
and have quite an exuberant voice, and never stop moving

their song is so beautiful that it echoes among my flowers 
and among my hanging baskets of trailing vines and blooms
sometimes, in the winter, little wrens sing at my window
saying hello in a song ... 'time to get up sleepy head' ~~

Wren Not Hen Has My Love

When I loved the Hen was then:
A hen sings not like a wren;
Hence, not in my Good Books Hen
While, there, safe and sound Wren!

The sounds hens make not for pen
If poets did adore them: when?
He was no poet: George O Ben,
Never a verse dropped: Friend ken.
Hens Ben loved fried as chicken,
Time Ken would invade kitchen...

Prefer I rare wrens to hens;
It's been one wren worth ten hens;
Only few men avoid Brown
Or would Brown confront and frown,
While I know that hens' cackles
Sound much like serious tackles.

Little Wren

Wren, wren, hungry wren,
what do you see today?
A lonely man with scraps of bread
he could have thrown away.

Wren, wren, little wren,
what do you see in me?
A smiling man who seeks out birds
for his society?

Wren, wren, with baby wren,
how do you treat your young?
You feed them well, as I once did
and teach them songs you've sung.

Wren, wren, there with your mate,
you ask me where's my love?
"She soars on higher breezes now,
the kind we both dream of".

Wren, wren, little wren,
what do you see in me?
A smiling man who seeks out birds
for his society?

Springtime Reveries

Buttery affection rains from the skies
Nurturing the tulips and daffodils
Bursts of joy upon the earth, to arise
With wonderous smiles, sunny thrills

Robins and wrens wrestle with the wind
Laughing and crooning, inspiring serenity
Warring with the windchimes, chagrined
By the swirling charms of love’s amenity

Oaks and birch whisper to the affections
Offering their silent hope with a caress
From the budding leaves with selections
For springtime reveries hearts profess

Meeting the Wren Faerie

She rode into town on an eagle’s wing
We did not know what to do when she started to sing
We had never seen a delicate faerie with such zing.
We had no idea what the rest of the day might bring.

I am the wren faerie, she told us all.
I can show you how to walk upright and tall.
We already knew this, but we decided to stall.
For her singing voice was attracting shoppers to the mall.

Faerie With Soul of a Baby Wren

Faerie with soul of a baby wren
Celebrating sweet spirit of her dead twin
Spiritual warmth flowing once again
Parading throughout the gentle glen.

Faerie with soul of a baby wren
Dreaming of reuniting with her lovely twin
Spiritual awakened in a dream state when….
She embraces her dream, where they both win.

Wren Returns

She slips in
 beneath the well-protected opening
 of an unoccupied birdhouse,
painted with yellow sunflowers
 and an unseen dark circled hole;
the place just the right size
 where her mate staged twigs 
 and leaves for a nesting place,
hollowed out along the hemlock trunk
 wrapped an entwined by honeysuckle vines;
this was the place
 she recalled it well
 so near to where she fledged;
now a comfy hideaway
 for her to lay her eggs
here, she would sing again
 tweet out her symphony
 raise her young
and bask happily,
 within the bounty of the garden stage.

Welcome, Tiny Wren

We wish you every success in building your nest
In the small mailbox next to our front door
Some might consider you a disruptive pest
We wish you every success in building your nest
Never has a tiny house wren become our guest,
Or, chosen to lodge so close to us before
We wish you every success in building your nest
In the small mailbox next to our front door.
