I don't know how I missed this post--the artwork alone should have caught my eye--perhaps, it was for a blind contest. I admired your 5-7-5 and your use of alliteration plus the intriguing title. I hope the poem did well in the contest- Joan

    It was probably a contest entry.

"Gifts of gratitude," indeed. I've got many of those myself. Good little poem for the contest and I wish you the best of luck in it. Second line is my favorite. Marilyn

You've written a good poem.
It consists of three lines with a syllable count of 5-7-5
I can see that this poem follows the guidelines of the contest.
Nice artwork: The image shown supports the poem. The background color goes well with the art and font color chosen.
Best of luck to you in the contest.
Thanks for sharing your Blackbird.
Good luck with your future writing.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I loved the subtle humor in this poem. The fact that you choose a dove, a symbol of grace and beauty was clever. Even the euphemism about bird poop reads like a lovely phrase. Nice work.

I like your slightly-mocking tone, especially the title. You feel you are a bevevolent despot when you fill the feeder, especially in early spring when birds have plenty to forage on. Then you get TItanium Bombs as a thank you. Nice use of alliteration in line 2.

This is a fine 5-7-5 poem and entry for the contest
Excellent imagery and connection of the doves and the feeder
as well as those unpleasant bombs
Excellent humor, I guess you should have said No RSVP required
Great picture to match
Well done
Good luck in the contest
RS
