Wings that circle about, always in constant flutter

These tiny avian creatures, are unlike any other

Long beaks, to suck nectar, from feeders, up high

No problem for them, as they soar through the sky

Small bodies, with amazing colors, so very bright

That dance, as they shine, off the reflecting light

A hummingbird is not one to mind, should you stare

In fact, you can’t help it, with the beauty they share

The ice in autumn’s air, sets my heart on fire

You keep me warm, through the ebony night

Though merely a crescent, my heart’s desire

To see the glow of your face, my guiding light

Through the Glade ~ #poetry

She walks like a feather

Afloat through the trees

Mesmerized by the light

She approaches with ease

Unaware of what’s hidden

Still she cannot resist

With soft, silent footsteps

She is lost to the mist

Hears it beckon to her

Child, be not afraid

And she glides ever closer

Through the dark forest glade

With each stroke painted

A brush released its beauty

His palette of life

Beholden to the talent

He never truly discerned

Mindful – #poetry #RDP #FOWC

It takes no special skill, to rattle Mother Nature’s ways

Still, she manages to protect the earth, so lovingly

Ever mindful, the reality, of disruptive human beings

Those who feed upon her, with such gluttony
