I love the way you finished it. It resonates SO deeply.<br /><br />We must be on the same trunk line to the muse, because I have one scheduled for One Single Impression this weekend that has a similar theme. At least the endings are similar.<br /><br />I think I've encountered and loved every one of these birds. Never ends well. And the sickest thing is I never regret it. Well, almost never.Mojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03498213932233245032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107838361391025851.post-64417874961943195292010-03-22T19:45:13.009-04:002010-03-22T19:45:13.009-04:00You've just described my bird feeder through t...You've just described my bird feeder through the seasons... and this ending is so true.<br /><br />Thanks for visiting my blog in support of Joanna.. much appreciated. :)Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107838361391025851.post-62192893663897428762010-03-22T19:32:22.495-04:002010-03-22T19:32:22.495-04:00Shay, I love the ending to this.Shay, I love the ending to this.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107838361391025851.post-23223287713270237842010-03-22T18:18:13.036-04:002010-03-22T18:18:13.036-04:00Loved this one.

Not only beautiful to read, but about one of my passions:~)<br /><br />I loved what you wrote about blue jays, especially this line, "Entire forest spring from her bold thievery." That's GREAT!!<br /><br />I was just fussing at my blue jays for swooping down on the feeder, crying HAWK all the way, making the little birds scatter in terror. <br /><br />They know no shame, but I do so love them, even with all their blustery noise:~)Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15995684156785464334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107838361391025851.post-57995668895508595152010-03-22T13:37:56.107-04:002010-03-22T13:37:56.107-04:00Oh Shay, as you know my fondness for and of birds,...Oh Shay, as you know my fondness for and of birds, my love of them is deep in my soul so this poem just expresses to me all that I have felt at various times of the nature and secret lives of birds.
