 Webshots Photo ~~~~~~ While walking around outside one beautiful sunny day There was a gleeful noise above something seemed busy at play As I looked up in the sky clear in a shining blue There I saw a huge flock of birds it was more than just a few Flying all together sounding as if in perfect rhyme They seemed to be actually laughing having a good ole time They must have been happy to feel the warm suns ray Their plans seemed to me to be for quite some time to stay I do not know the names of these beautiful birds I see Once I wrote about a ~mockingbird~ that was a ~hummingbird~ in reality ~~~~~~ |

LOL...Ethel, please tell us how you mistook a hummingbird for a mockingbird. It must be a charming story! A wonderful summery poem... |

Not necessary to know the names of the birds...remember the Karen Carpenter song, "Why do birds suddenly appear, every time you are near, just like me they long to be, close to you." James |

Karilea, not long after I came here, I wrote a poem about hummingbirds that come up to Gary's Dad's porch to feed. In the whole poem, I called them Mockingbirds. Later that day, I mentioned that I had written the poem to Gary's Mom and Dad about the "Mockingbirds" that came to eat. He said, "What Mockingbirds?" and I knew right away that I had put the wrong name for the birds on my poems. By the way, none of you sweet people here said anything about it, until I had posted a winter version of this poem. LOL I'll go find the link to the other "Mockingbird" poem. HeeHee!! |

 (smiles) Oh Ethel, this is soooooooo cute, sweet friend, I just heard about the story of the birds and it made me giggle too, though I think we all make these little goofs every now and then! (kiss on cheek) This is sooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, yay for birds, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |

I love writing about nature. Love your picture and your poem. I have a few written about birds also one or two humorous ones. One is called Ike and Spike. About two birds who fly south for the winter, then return north and there is still snow on the ground and their wishing they had a pair of boots. Thanks for the write. Bonnie j aka Bon-Bon |
