I’ve brought a tasty morsel
Thought you deserved a treat
I know it’s been quite awhile
Since you’ve had some to eat

I found this little worm
Hanging freely, from a tree
Grabbed him, as I flew by
It’s dinnertime, you see!

No need to set the table
This is only meant for two
Pretty soon, we’ll have to share
When greeting our new crew!

Ah, Mama Bird, how proud I am
To call this place our home
Here, we’ll raise a family
And never shall we roam

And though the kids will leave us
While I know, it’s for the best
I will stay here, by your side
You and me, in our little nest

#FridayFantasy ~ No Ordinary Bird – #poetry

Come closer, I’ll not bite you
That’s really quite absurd
Can’t you see, from the look in my eye
I am no ordinary bird

My feathers shine in ebony

The blackest you will ever see

I am not the raven spoken of
The one Edgar Allan knew
I really am quite different
I know this to be true

Though dark am I, as the evening sky

You’ll feel me near, as my wings fly by

Duck your head, protect your hair
The world above is mine
I’ll fly by you, without a care
I’m simply quite divine

Onyx, against the leaves of green

The most beautiful bird you’ve ever seen

No need to be frightened of me
If you stay in the distance, in fact
Shoo me away, and off I’ll go
But you can bet, one day, I’ll be back

Colleen’s poetry challenge for this week is a photo prompt!  Ironically, I used the same picture in a poem I wrote this past Monday, titled, “My Own Little Space“. Colleen challenged me to write a Haiku based on the same photo, to see where else the prompt might take me.  So, here is my Haiku!

 


Morning sun wakens

Many feathered creatures fly

Among orange clouds
