****************
back yard entertains
visitors at the feeder
show no social distancing
cardinal flashes red
finches show sunshine yellow
jay adds shades of blue
squirrels check peanuts
all gone, all gone they chatter
we say come by tomorrow
no need for movies
we have a private showing
daily dawn to dusk
Marvelously linked!
ReplyDeletewho cares about movies when you can watch squirrels checking peanuts!

ReplyDeleteMuch✏love
This is beautifully written, Beverly. I love this piece! It has such positive imagery and it delineates the enjoyment of watching nature at its element. I see the appeal to bird-watching. Aren't birds just beautiful and interesting?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, fantastic poem here! Thank you for sharing.
Sounds like quite a show. Well written.
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful movie showing which never ends amidst the shrieks and the shouts of little creatures. Lots of movements and lots of colours! Great sequential progress, indybev!

Ohh! The long movie we are acting in keeps us absorbed.
ReplyDeleteBackyard delight! You evoke it so vividly! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteI like the reference to the pandemic in the first haiku, Bev, which made me smile, and the vivid colours in the second one. Hoorah for the private showings in our parks and gardens!
ReplyDeleteYour birds are wonderful! So much fun to watch. Yes, the squirrels are little piggies that need rations!! :>)
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of no social distancing and no need for movies!
ReplyDeleteI like your private show.
ReplyDeleteI would love to join you there and watch the exciting show!
ReplyDeleteHow I wish you could, Grace. We'd have a fine time comparing life stories!
DeleteMy family has a garden like this, full of birds, butterflies, caterpillars, and other creatures daily! The squirrel knows better than to come back to our yard, though...
ReplyDeleteThat is the best kind of entertainment!
