Are my eye's out of focus?
Have I been denied, my ocular senses?
I swear that something just flew by!
A hummingbird perhaps...or sprite?
************************************

Sun-rays on green potters glaze
Reflect on thee this summer day;
Speeds atomic, whirling wings,
Match dervish deeds of heat-beats...
*
Thrust,
Black arrow
Deep in Mandeville;
Drink sprite
Glare, click,
Display
A moment bright;
Ruby jewels,
Then dart away...
Diamond dot
Of nectar on
Your beak.
*
end

Sounds like a hummingbird to me, and I love watching them dart around.  Very enjoyable write.

the cadence of your write was like watching the hummingbird for myself, the reader...you taught the ears to see...well done!

(does happy hummingbird waltz) Awwwwwwww, I love hummingbirds and faeries soooooo much, sweet friend, I still believe faeries exist but until I see one hummingbirds are just as magical to me, yay, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ford, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
