You'd wear out my sixes if I'd let you so except a virtual one easy.
What I love best about this gem is how you shift from the tetrameter to a bit of free verse in your last stanza. It really puts emphasis on it.
Love the term "broken ear". Very effective!
Take care,

Great poem ... I love the word imagery and simple presentation. There's nothing as beautiful as nature. A pleasure to read..

The rhyme and rhythm of this poem are excellent and I love the ideas behind it but the ending just seems like an after-thought. It is beautiful in itself but does not really fit with the rest of the poem.

Hmm, great poem, until the ending which, personally, I feel is shoved on a bit. It's a good idea, but I don't feel it fits the rest of the poem. But who am I? No-one.

Your words painted a beautiful picture. Yes, God has created much beauty in our world, yet we often don't stop to enjoy it or thank Him for it. Thank you for reposting this poem for us so we can enjoy it.

Poetic quatrains written in iambic tetrameter. easy ... you say ... for you.
Now I must go forth and see what the words used by you mean. j.k.
Very nicely done ... or revisited.

Such a lovely flow of language, giving an impression of easiness, but completely faultless in rhythm, rhyme and scan. However, I would like to see a hyphen in the 'broken-winged' adjective.
Love your work - take it easy, easy (haha) Julie L

It's not as if I can't bear sadness and gloom, it's just that it all weighs the reader down after a while and achieves nothing (in my view). These happier verses, in contrast, lift one up and inspire. And you do them so well! Thanks for sharing. Debbie
