Watching Spring I sat with back against a tree. New, springy grass grew under me. I watched the advent of the spring, Enjoying each and every thing. I listened to a flicker's cry And saw a hummingbird nearby, Just hovering, to look around And see if feeders could be found. Some wood ducks waddled from the creek To peck the ground with stubby beak And over all, the clouds sailed by Like galleons, across the sky. The scent of sap was in the air. The daffodils and tulips, fair, Made splash of color and I heard Such joyous songs from every bird! I felt a breeze so warm and soft And watched an eagle soar aloft. I lost all sense of time and place, While watching spring, reveal her face! Betty Lou Hebert Published in Lines N'Rhymes. 2000 Tranquil Moments, 2004 |

Beautiful poem! I could sit and watch hummingbirds all day long. I think they are the neatest birds. |
