God's street smarts!

Yes they are the cutest little bums,sitting just before my window, on an overgrown American Bittersweet, plumb as partridges, the noise is deafening, but they hide there from the falcon and warm themselves on the sunny side of the house, tapping the window pane when they are hungry,it's like watching a Disney Movie, they way the chat with each other, wonderful little friends.

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
God’s street smarts!
 
At the edges of tomorrow,
Of vast dissenting time,
Fly toward light, or sorrow,
No power to decline,
 
The faithful wings now faltering,
Now, just kept alight by faith,
Are like flying on one wing,
To hell or heaven raise,
 
A thousand little sparrows,
Not my struggle be content,
Snatch me from the falcon’s harrow,
To guide me toward heavens end,
 
There one by one, with chirp and chatter,
Me, to the lord defend,
Let in this old mad hatter,
Even, if some rules you bent
 
Quizzically he looked at me, and said,
Are these all you’re friends,
And I said you bet,
Come on in, no need to make amends.

And mine as well my friend! The night birds have become my friends as well as the day birds that chirp and sing in the trees of rest stops along the way. God's music singing me to sleep. A great work, Jasmin.
Love,
annie

Are these all you’re friends,
And I said you bet,

You are truly, The Bird Whisperer, not The Mad Hatter!

We had some years back and gray visitor with red plumage chest, the cutest little you ever saw (hey don't ask me which bird, be content that I could know it was a bird!)well, he was chased by mean crows trying to take from him (her?) the little morsels of food we left on the window sill.
Street smarts? you bet, when chased he would fly rigt onto the house's sidewall only to shot, a couple of inches before hitting it, up and let the black hooligan to broke his neck against the wall like a tennis ball going out of business.
We saw the little rascal do it a few times, and the diminishing in numbers group of crows never catd on.

This made me chuckle "... Come on in, no need to make amends." Inherent in these words 'like me, like my friends' or ...

God bless you. Kathy
