Insatiable in September

hummingbirds


 


Hummingbirds cut arcs


right angles


trapezoids and triangles


and fancy geometric curves


as they


hover and hum.


Their voices are small stones


quartz chips that hit


                                                they flit away


 


stoke up on flower’s


nectar they sip


through long beaks.


 


They prepare for long flights south.


They peer in our windows


and chase each other away


they drain our hanging feeders


each day.

I have seen hummingbirds fly, or is it flitting, around. Tiny little birds, that can hover over a flower, like a helicopter, and take the sweet nectar without even touching the flower petals. They are indeed magnificent to watch. Thanks for sharing Barbara.

May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little den sister, Barbie

They are beautiful to watch. I see them frolicing in the bougainvilla outside my office window.

Enjoyed reading.
