Hummingbird

In the dawn light
a hummingbird
flies up to me,
so close my hands
could cup it.

My tiny friend dances,
dances in the garden--
a magician of joy

Kate Jewel 2009

 

Spring

As I grow old
surging new life
calls out to me--

go gently,
be strong,
say the daffodils.

dance for joy!
whirrs the hummingbird.

celebrate!
exclaim the
mountain streams
cascading with snow melt.

rejoice!  rejoice!
sings all nature.
