HUMMER THE HUMMINGBIRD

By Jean Monce Bryant
Lake Forest Park, WA



Hummer the Hummingbird
Dear little whirr
Magical gossamer
Wings in a blur

Coming for sweetness
To sip from each flower
Bringing your beauty
In sunshine or shower

Magical messenger
Out of the blue
Delighting my soul
Refreshing anew

You bring such delight
When your form I do see
So tiny so beautiful
So fresh and so free

The nectar you take
As you drink from each flower
The sweetness you bring to me
Here in my bower

I thank you dear Hummer
And as you depart
Your love and your sweetness
Live on in my heart

Please help me to share
All the sweetness you give
And reach out in love
Every day that I live
