Indigo Buntings and Sunflowers

Summer symphonies among the flowers...

On an overcast day where Crepe Myrtle pray... 

Sunflowers reach for Clouds that float 

in an Ocean of Blue...  

The Breeze becomes the Song of Autumn leaves 

falling like feathers when fledglings fly to 

 Sycamore trees... 

Feeders are full of Sunflower seed where 

Indigo Buntings preen their feathers and 

complain about the Weather... 

After the Rain drops cover the Roses 

 

with Kisses of sweet perfume...  

the Boughs of Nests cradle the Buntings 

in Melodious waves of Summertime Blues...

It threw me that the rhyme and meter lasted exactly one line, I was all warmed up to flow with more of it...
In a way, that perhaps made me pay more attention thereafter.
The theme is wonderful and natural and inviting. It makes me think you are a gardener of flowers as well as of words.

dearest softlyfall… discovering a Beautiful Autumn leaf softly falling is a pleasant experience after days of high Winds. Ballerinas are Poets in Motion. Lovely to express the sensuality of Romance. tenderly, Pat

[Patricia Wedel]

Oh dear… I read your Poem before thanking you for reading my Poem. I suppose they go together as the Leaves Pirouette through the Breeze. Autumn is a time for reflection and inspiration. Your feelings have framed my thoughts in golden sun rays. gently, Pat

[emmajoygreen]

As ever, your wording is unique and forever beautiful. You convert our planet into a palette of colour and scent. Beautiful Love and bestest wishes to both you and Roger. :)

This summer is so infinitely beautiful...
Sunflowers gold in a summer blue sky.
How truly magnificent is the sycamore tree that hosts the Indigo Buntings and gives them space to socialize...?
I close my eyes to feel the autumn breeze in your words and I can feel the melodies.

Beautifully expressed as I fell into the words, especially like the line== After the raindrops cover the roses with kisses of sweet perfume ;-] Lovely write.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Willow … thank you for your words that fall gently on my mind with Leaves of magenta and gold. tenderly, Pat

[Pryde Foltz]

You had me sighing with content by the end of this, Pat. There are few nature poets with your skill. Always so much beauty.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Pryde… you are so kind… I love spending my silver and golden years writing about Nature… it is fascinating. I subscribe to the Magazine, “Birds and Blooms”… they are so informative about the habits and beauty of Birds. The survival skills of Birds is phenomenol. 💗 lovely to see you always… My plan is still to purchase your Books. I read where you mentioned how and whom to Order your Works. tenderly, Pat

[Pryde Foltz]

Thanks, Pat. If you scroll down to the bottom of any of poem and click on a book image, it should take you to my amazon page:) Much love:)

[Patricia Wedel]

Thanks, Pryde... Barnes and Noble or Books a Million in Fredericksburg, Virginia (where we live) will help me feel comfortable with ordering from Amazon. "Hearts entwined" is a lovely Adieu... gently, Pat-- As Robert Frost would say, "I have Promises to Keep" even if it Snows.

[Pryde Foltz]

Lovely snow but quite yet:)

A beautiful poem for the gifts of nature. Tomorrow, me and the grandchildren going to sunflower festival. So cool to fall into the beauty of our world. Thank you dear Pat for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

dear John… Sunflowers are so Tall and Beautiful… as though they are a Lookout Tower in the Fall when Apples are picked for Autumn Cider and Apple Pie… Enjoy the Butterflies as they flutter by…. tenderly, Pat
