Whistle if you need me

The day was Sunny and I had a funny feeling as 

I was perched upon a branch of a Sycamore tree... 

I myself was an olive green with feathers just preened. 

as the fella started to sing, "Whistle if you need me"... 

It wasn't long before we had gathered enough Thistle to 

line our Nest of sky blue eggs waiting to burst open to Life...   

My partner was a bright Canary Gold with a trill that soothes 

the fledglings with their Beeks open wide ready to devour seeds 

and the like as if they were getting prepared for First Flight.  

Near-by in a Hammock of bright Red stripes was a Mistress 

in distress who just wanted to rest as the fledglings grew in their nest.  

The American Gold Finch will eventually rest on Coneflowers...

I call it a symphony of birds when I work in the yard trimming and listening to our great feathery friends. You are soaring in poetry as they soar high on branches. You are celebrating how to enjoy all God offers us through nature. Long live Patricia Wedel.

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Sami... you are very caring and kind with a heart like a bouquet of flowers. We are so blessed during this Pandemic to have the beauty of Nature and the songs of Birds.
Perhaps there will be “Healing” as time goes by and we will find a Rainbow 🌈 after each Storm. Best wishes for your health and safety. truly, Pat

[Sami Khalil]

A wonderful poem shared dear Pat. You give life to nature with your words. I am listening to the birds now in my yard. Mating season. They are singing for their mate. Hello from Michigan and thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

dearest John... so blessed to read your review. It seems the Birds have affection for their families and feathered friends. It is a privilege to leave seed for them. They bring so much Color and 🎶 Songs to our lives. We finally had a lot of Rain and the grass is greener and blossoms are awakening to summer sun and fun 🤩... tenderly, Pat

Hello dear Pat and I hope the days of June is kind to you.

[Patricia Wedel]

We have had thunderstorms and winds... the crepe myrtle trees are bending over in prayer for our Country. Amen... Pat

you write with deep appreciation of our feathered friends always, Pat; and this is not exception. Love that third line especially ... it gets the story rolling .. finches are so plentiful and wondrously painted .. so small but bodacious ... going about every day business as all good finches do... always .. the mistress waiting in the hammock isn't there!? delight to read .. i always learn about and to appreciate our aviary friends in your poetry ..

dearest Gene... we had a nourishing rain ... a real treat of a thunderstorm. Of course, I left my Hammock to seek Shelter. I adore your review... as always, Pat

I couldn't help but smile at the unintended soundtrack accompanying this Pat, a group of confused chirps and tweets, probably asking each other what happened to day and night (currently not dark until near 10pm and light at 3am)
Or maybe it was the Mrs shilling about him being out with "her" again 😊
Perfect timing to read your words, already brought to life on the page, as I wonder of the wonder at being able to soar free any time out hearts desire. My feet would rarely touch the ground again. 😊

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Lorry... reminds me of the Song.. Bring in the Clowns... and me in Mid Air...
so endearing .. the Mistress Chilling about him being out with “her” again. You are a PlayWright by heart. tenderly, Pat

[Kerra]

This is a lovely write......

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Kerra.. truly appreciate your heart print ... we have many moments to enjoy Nature. gently, Pat

[emmajoy]

Such a lovely picture your words have inspired... bright and songful.. busy and babyful.. life on the wing, neat or warm. How you love the birds and how charmingly you set the picture.. the coming and going of family plus life.. the colours plumage offers.. and more.. so much more. Many thanks, dear lady. Love, best wishes to both you and Roger. take care.. keep safe in your very own nest. :)

[Patricia Wedel]

dear darling Em.. your review is so feathery... we just had cold Watermellon that was as sweet as you ...
So happy you enjoyed the poem Song about Nesting of the Goldfinch... we are fortunate around the World to have the Bird Angels in glorious Colors to set an example on Survival. Love and blessings... Petal x

[emmajoy]

Your poems always send me off and away smiling and that is worth its weight in gold, dear lady. Perhaps it's not only the colour and song of birds but the fact they fkt and fly, enjoying the freedom humans aren't entirely ale to enjoy 0 especially these days! Warm wishes to you and Roger. take care, keep safe. Hugs.

Imaginative, colorful and beautiful! I loved how you used the birds, because they’re such poetic animals. They’re so fun to use and you wrote them so creatively. It was a delight to read!

[Patricia Wedel]

Thank you Colacat... birds are such colorful characters, and I admire how they seem to survive

An imaginative portrait of nature. These moments of simple joy that reflect the world around us. And is often the reason why we ask of ourselves to take the time to just live in the moment and be absorbed by it.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Carlos... I often wonder how Birds adjust to the Weather without permanent shelter. I try to leave seed regularly for our feathered friends. truly, Pat
