The uniqueness of "Show You Small" depicts the great flier, and
takes the reader to an ecological trip.
I enjoyed the contents and message of this composition.
"Show You Small" adds value to the treasure of Poetry.
Gratefully,

I have watched these birds during the mating/nesting season here; they've even scared me at times by the way they come right at you and make a loud noise. Nicely done, Pea. Thank you. Love and peace,

Dynamite comes in small packages, and this one explodes joyfully off the page! I love hummers, and I love this tribute to their resiliency (spelling?). BRAVA!
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla. |

Expect the first glimpse of one of these tiny creatures to be as glamourous as their names, ruby-topaz, violet-capped woodnymph (the one I am!)white-tailed goldenthroat, blossomcrown, amethyst-throated sunangel, glowing puffleg, bronze-tailed comet, purple-crowned fairy, horned sungem, amethyst woodstar---these are the few names I found in Elysian groves of the poet's vision. Hummingbirds owe their beauty to their graceful streamlined form and shining metallic colors. Thank you, my fluorescent, metallic friend Pea. Your gliterati plumage is essentially utilitarian, very useful to us here on the den. You are the name-bearer for the whole hummingbird group! Pea-Green, sounds like a sweet hummngbird species to me!

I love these courageous powerful little runts - and this piece - they are truly nature’s stunt birds being able to hover, and fly up, down, and backwards, just like a powerful tiny helicopter!

Hullo dear Pea :0)... so it's dynamite in small packages - eh? We have a humming bird here in the Cape that is unique & not found anywhere else in the world. Has a call/voice so sweet that it takes the listner's breath away - guess that and it's nature,(as explained in your poem)makes it one lethal wee birdie!

A feast of a write Pea, the aerodynamic power and hovering abilities of the humming bird, mark it out as unique and brilliant in the aviary world !
Your consummate use of what I would call reverse effect wordage adds a fascinating and compelling force to your compositions !
You yourself are quite unique in this style of writing !

| Fantastic, Pea! LUCKY DUCKY!!! Hummingbirds exist for me only in dreams and in a very rare visit to the local zoo, so thank you for bringing them - not only right up close - but in such a way as to reinforce the wonder of them and their natural magnificence. Your style is unique and you impart your information in a most intriguing and compelling way. Last three words to die for: kaCHING indeed! :)) TY Kate xx |

| LOL I love the not seeing is believing. Humor is terif. So is the observation We never had hummers but I remember nuthatches and grossbeaks. The place was as bad as O'Hare Airport--one take off and landing a minute. |

I adore this one Pea! YOu are so right. I too have a feeder. I even had a mother bring its baby to show how to feed, I thought the baby was a bee it was so small. You know how sometimes bees get after the sugar if it drips a lot. I was totally awed by the sight, and stayed behind the screen door barely breathing. They are a wonder to watch. Once I was going out the door without paying attention and I heard a clicking sound and realized it was the hummer, I went back in and let it finish feeding;-)hahaha Thanks for this one so gooooooood!
