Basking, in the warmth of sun

Soaking it in, before day is done

Relaxing here, on this quiet tree

Where no one really notices me

I blend in well, with winter gray

And I can lounge the day away

Until it’s time, to go back home

Into this tree, that’s mine, alone

 

Author’s note:  This is not my buddy, Gandolph.  He’s just another gray squirrel who hangs out in our tree  🙂

Beneath the brilliant, cloudless blue

The starling sings a song or two

A joyful chorus, across the sky

His melody, for passers by

A tune he chirps, without a care

Yet, one that makes you stop and stare

For his feathers are rich, in colors bright

A charming bird, in daytime light

Such a beautiful sight, for all to see

Sweet wonder of nature, implicitly
