Patter delicate feet, padding lightly
amongst crimson saucers erupts
righteous riots spontaneously
disrespect to dawns peace, bursts
winged foragers squabbling brazenly
hauled from slumber land abruptly
barely over headboard, extended nape
prise open a lash disobedient, flagrantly
popping one pupil, unfocussed gape
ensuing tree top bar brawl blatantly
cursing hidden raven, crowing noisily
unfocussed eyes surprise pair of robins
madly arbitrating chores domestically
hopping o'er delicate blossom crimsony
crested napes banner scarlet unapologetically
lashes as they rolled down, hauled up rudely
atop the highest scarlet tulip crown
working curved hookbills furiously
a squawking majestic Jade, unyielding frown
into the trodden blossom glaring ominously
sighing loss of dreams, settling dormancy
drawing from a full headed cluster
holds a feebly trilling aural litany
lovebirds, gesticulating in full fluster
lashes fully opened by sounds heavenly

littany should be litany, but who's counttting? ! hee-hee ha ha prise open a lash disobedient, flagrantly popping one pupil, unfocussed gape.........i think pries, as in does pry............ and........unfocused. BUT i am very pleased you write in English, since otherwise i would not get to read some of your poems! ! ! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - and when i Googled 'define noisely' i found that MY spelling is not perfect. of course i knew THAT already! (see below) Showing results for define noisily Search instead for define noisely - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - madly arbitrating chores domestically ............sounds like this household! :) lashes as they rolled down, hauled rudely................this line baffles me. Perhaps adding “up” after “hauled” would help? …..for me it would! ! ! “holds a feebly trilling aural litany” …………… HERE YOU did USE JUST ONE “t”. ……… :) This shall go “as is”*** into my/our November “a showcase for PH poets”, Section B. ***[except that I shall correct the misspelling in the title to match the spelling near the end of the poem] thanks. bri :)
