This is a cute little poem, a fun read. We have these cute little birds visit our feeder all the time, but they aren't as brave as that, they'll fly off if I open the curtain to fast, or notice me in the window.

Hi melissa, this is just too sweet. I loved your poem and it's sentiment. To feed the birds is such a feat and how brave they are. Your poem has great rhythm and imagery. All the best. Ulla:)))

Comment from June Sargent
This is adorable, Melissa! Wish I could get to feed birds out of my hand. The artwork is eye catching with the bright blue gloves offering the seeds and the cute little bird cocking his head. Should I, shouldn't I? Oh, I'll go for it...well done.

Comment from Mustang Patty
Hi, Melissa,
The picture is darling, but you outdid it with the power of your rhymes. The sing-song rhythm of this piece works well - I could see it as a children's rhyme. Thank you for sharing,

Comment from CD Richards
There is something very exhilarating when a tiny wild creature is willing to put their trust in us like that. It makes us (well, me at least) feel a little less unworthy to be considered part of the animal kingdom. A most delightful picture, and a lovely poem with excellent rhyme and meter. Good job, Melissa.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
This is a sweetly rhymed poem about this cute little bird, I notice you have used commas here but no fullstops or 'periods' as you guys call them? I remember getting kicked into line by my editor when I first published because I didn't use punctuation properly. This of course does not detract from your poem. Love Dolly x

If you are considering publishing your poetry Melissa, you should punctuate your work, I can?t put too finer point on it because your meaning will improve and it will give your poetry more professionalism, love Dolly x

Thank you very much, Dolly. I really do think you are right and I should go back and look at all of my poetry. But, I am overwhelmed by that thought. LOL. Better in the future... I hope..

I only go back over my work if it is to be published in a book, then you can punctuate it then x x x

What sweet little poem and I love the imagery you provide with telling the bird to wear his Cape and cap because that is indeed what it looks like! Your rhyme and rhythm are smooth making this a pleasure to read. Well done, thanks for sharing!

Comment from LovnPeace
my, you are very brave--- The last line I seemed to stumble a bit line and it seemed to break the good flow. Lovely poem and picture. I hope you don't mind, but I would replace the word (very) with the word SO, It flows better, Just a suggestion. Blessings, Barbara

That is a really brave bird! I guess they figure out who has the food and that he or she can be trusted. Lovely rhyming quatrains that describe this picture well.
