Birding

Spring arrives soon and I'm without a word.
As I listen to songs from each special bird.
On a vacant limb sits Robin Red Breast,
giving his wings a much needed rest.
The Mocking Bird shows off in the tallest oak.
The Brown Thrasher sits where other birds spoke.
The beautiful Cardinal hides in a nearby thicket.
The Blue Bird perches on the neighbor's picket.
The tiny Wren entertains on my sun deck
While the Mourning Dove moves across the lawn with a peck.
Each one is special to its Maker above,
singing His praises for protection and love.
