An alien visitor

trying to invade my home

with beady little eyes

afraid to be alone

 

A glorious creature

one of God’s creations

peering in the window

waiting for an invitation

 

Looking through the window

observing how we live

searching for food

wanting us to give

 

The door opens

there is an opportunity

flying to the door

calling to his community

 

The door slams

there is a swat

he flies away

another window is sought

 

Other aliens join him

they have built a nest

swarming around the window

more wood to ingest

 

The weather is cooler

time to settle down

planning a new invasion

when the spring comes round
