hummingbird – A Picture and a Poem

May 9, 2020

Hummingbird

Swing

Dancing

Within the

Small dark corners

Around the backyard

Chasse to glean silken floss

Rock-step to a mound of moss

Choreography

Of Nest building

Inside soon

Fledglings

Swing

Salvia elegens

Pineapple sage, sweet scented mint – November blooms, glad to know it

Tropical plant, ruby red hint – soft light green leaves, had to sow it

Container bound, oh so fragrant – hummingbird bait, rad to show it

Matter of time, frost will kill it – yearly planted, mad to grow it.
