I choose these two lines from the list;
Sunny April Afternoon
Fruitloop Daydream
➰➰➰
I,
Absorbed in the magic of the sunny April afternoon
Was rudely awoken from my fruitloop daydreams
By the jarring note of discordant twittering
Birds instead of singing sweet spring melodies
Were in a war over the territory and birdseeds
Why?
I ask…..
Can’t you serenade me with sweet birdsongs
Why like humans you choose to go to war
Come now my little feathered friends, let’s forget the worldly woes
And sing together to celebrate the spring and it’s magic!
➰➰➰

It’s hard not to giggle at ” fruit loop dreams.” You made the wisdom of sharing rather than fighting so relatable. Great poem, my friend. Bravo!!

Birdsong is probably all querulous even when it sounds good to human ears.

No sometimes they just sing happily, especially early in the morning. Very melodious.

Birds do have their differences from time to time! I see them fighting over nesting spaces. On the Earth Day walk we took a path by a lake and Canadian geese were pitching a fit over a nesting area.
