Beak yellow
Spotty the feathers
(Gold on black)
Tail is short
Head small
Legs funny
(As if in a stove
A straw
Partly charred,
Thin feathers are black,
Part orange; set to light
And partly turned to ash
Hanging on as claws
An expert
Looks for worms
In the grass
Each blade wearing hat;
Fresh dews
Early spring
After rain
No snail
Absent worms
The vegans
Sparrows and their kin
Too small; redder head
On the grass, search for seed
In love with beauty
I look around
Look at nymphs; Aphrodite,
Man-made art
And kind girls and their site
(Who are fooled or are bought)
With wonder I am lost.
The wonder of it all! And so many today are totally oblivious to such beauty in nature. Instead, they have their noses buried in their cell phones or laptops! Such a shame!
The beauty of nature is all around us and there for our enjoyment. If we just take a moment to slow down and savor! Great poem Nassy!
