she dances in the swaying trees with pirouettes and ballyhoos and coos and coos........ fearlessly flittering care-less-ly from leafy perch to leafy perch springtime joy warmed deep within her tiny throat erupts!......spilling melodic messages throughout a chromatic meadowverse fearlessly flittering care-less-ly from leafy perch to leafy perch she dances in the swaying trees with pirouettes and ballyhoos and coos and coos........ and coos and coos........ "HEY, DON'T THROW THAT AWAY, I MIGHT NEED IT SOMEDAY!!!" Packratmike |

Thank you Irish Rose and Just a Woman....glad you like it. I went to bed last night thinking about this poem and when I got up wrote it as I listened to the birds outside. Some birds, I noticed, seem to sing the same song over and over again or vary it a little by removing a few notes from the beginning and placing them at the end. In part, I tried to portray this in the poem. Here is another variation where the last section, mirrors the first section: she dances in the swaying trees with pirouettes and ballyhoos and coos and coos........ fearlessly flittering care-less-ly from leafy perch to leafy perch springtime joy warmed deep within her tiny throat erupts!......spilling melodic messages throughout a chromatic meadowverse from leafy perch to leafy perch care-less-ly fearlessly flittering with pirouettes and ballyhoos and coos and coos........ she dances in the swaying trees |
