up there high in the sky singing a song
of what it sees.
do you see what the songbird sees?
Can you feel the wind as it whips the trees
shaking the very song of the songbird?
blinded by the gray that
flows like water from the sky
drawing the sound of the song
the melancholy echos not the same
as the sound recreated
as we chase snowflakes that
formed from the shattered
sound of the songbird
to lie
empty on the ground.
Are we victims now?
of the shattered lost
sound
of the snow bird song?

I have never tried bird photography. I think it will require a great patience to do that.
i ended up spending the entire day watching and shooting. I shared a few more pictures today@
Ohh, Where are these pictures?
i only shared 12, i have many more.

Waking up to bird singing is some of the most beautiful, dear friend
it really is, relaxing start to a day!
I just notice that since the crows have appeared, the smaller birds are singers much smaller
it is so true, I love to watch the birds come and go with the seasons.
Some of them are really beautiful … and what a distance they fly … moving from us to Africa
i always find that to be amazing. Carol shared the migration of Monarch butterflies, I was amazed!
A bird song awakens me every morning. It’s the most beautiful wake-up call.
that is truly a wonderful wake up call
I can spend all day looking at the birds!
i can as well and often do when Carol or you post!
Indeed I have spent a day in nature, I felt as one. And I recognize this stunning snowy silhouette. Great job Doc.
thanks – this is actually a new poem written about a month ago!
Great poem, I like the flow and can relate. I should try this sometime.
🙂 it is a hobby that relaxes often! 🙂
I want you to be still
And listen to that songbird
To the happy melodies it sing
As it worship the sun
While perched on that tree branch
Up there high where the wind freely blows

what a wonderful thought. I like your poem!
I was writing something for my post when yours show on the feed so I was still in that mood when I commented ??
i love the poem! it is perfect!
The melancholic sound of the songbirds song tugs at the very core of our hearts. We have a bird here ( I don’t know what exactly it is called in English) that mourns tragically, the song of this bird could really make you cry if you had experienced loos or heart ache in the recent past. I was reminded of that bird when I read your poem.
it is truly a connection with more than is there. Thanks!!!
