Spiders, Bugs And Bees

 

 

 

'Midst towering green branches,

birds chirp and flutter,

fashioning their nest with twigs and leaves

and their pantry is supplanted with delicious victuals

of spiders, bugs and bees.

 

Offspring in the nursery,

practice their takeoff and landings

and when the dinner bell is rung,

they run and shout with glee.

 

Father gives a warning,

you'd better settle down

and eat all Mother feeds you

or you'll be punished,

off to bed with no tv.

 

Later, if you looked in the nest,

you'd spy baby birdies fast asleep

and you'd hear Mother bird,

as she said, "Not tonight, dear,

please let me get some rest"!

What a sweet write my friend. I really enjoyed the conversations in the personification given to this family of birds. I so enjoy imagining just what animals are saying to each other... nice write. ;)
