little bird with yellow beak
sits in empty frangipanni tree
perfect
it trips and hops
is happy
i am happy
to see this thing….the life,
and beautiful COLOUR
so inviting that my body wants to die and fall apart
to be the bird, the beak
and the tree.

I enjoyed the poem, though I admit I had to look up the definition for “frangipanni”.

maybe they don’t have frangipani tree’s where you are…? or are they known by a different name?

Perhaps they are but I am unaware. Either way, I enjoy learning a new word and so I thank you! š

I love birds. Before getting into full-blown animal advocacy all around, I had an amateur bird-watching faze. Great poem, short, simple, elegant; it gets right to the heart of it with description and emotion. Excellent.

You’ll have to remedy that! I’ve actually got two bird tattoos. A blue jay on my right bicep (my favorite bird), and an American goldfinch (my state bird) within a collage of historical facts about New Jersey.
