A Tuckingmill Bird.
My heart is astir with what
this morning
I caught aloft under a bluebell sky.
A bird who trills high, yet smaller
than small
Is it's frame, and seemed to be making reply
To my spirit which soared as
I spied crest
Of gold above darkest large eye.
The park
Which graces this valley will never best
The feathered perfection I saw,
just marking
His tiny terrain with sublime bird-talk.
That Goldcrest at Tuckingmill
crowned my walk.

A lovely tribute to natures beauty that surrounds us. A reminder that we should open our senses to the wonderful things God gave us. Ron

What an adorable little bird (reminds of a finch without the 'roman' beak). And the poem that accompanies it is penned in pastels (bluebell sky) with some very pretty rhymes and clever enjambment. 'Smaller than small' describes your feathered miracle to perfection. A sweetheart of a poem. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

So lovely to see the picture of the bird you describe and how tiny he must be. You have written with such joy tonight I shall dream of at little gold bird with sweet trills...

They somehow put everything into perpective. They are a joy to find and a sight to see. What a lovely write about such a charming sweet bird. I have a little china goldcrest and it is so lovely, it looks almost real.

I agree with Tom; gold-dusted words for a gold-crested bird. Wonderful! :)

This is a charming and pleasing poem on that golden crested wren-like bird, Fay, always a pleasant sight to see and sound to hear on a fine day. Your delightful poem tells us spring is not far away! Carl.
