Love Songs


Sitting on a branch

the bird began to sing

weaving a love song

plumping up its wings


Kicking a clump

off the tree

making way for the female

pretty as can be


A mating dance

the chemistry is right

creating a lifelong commitment

on this starry night


Finding a bird house

close to some feeders

near a pump lies some leaves

fallen from a cedar


The house is ready

filled with a nest

beautiful blue eggs

female protects and rests


Singing a happy melody

the eggs begin to hatch

young birds are chirping

with harmonies to match


Young ones fly away

time to weave a new song

the birds sing together

as life moves along
