The bird in charge of my yard

A chapter in the book For the Birds

The President

by mermaids

He prances around my yard
as if he owns the world
in charge of trees, insects
squirrels and chipmunks

the president demands
respect and attention
a robin full of energy
I watch him manage
my outside home

all is quiet as
doves peck seed
he nods in agreement
feasting and then back
to observing his domain

daffodils bow towards
this appointed leader
he further ambles towards
a meal of worms
I take comfort in
this bird of song
who reigns in the
natural world



Recognized


I have a robin that walks around my yard as if he is the owner of the property.He deserves a poem.
