Natures Siren (Sedoka)

Missing image
Weeping Willow Tree
sways and dances in the wind,
sending perfumed floras scent.

Humming Bird answers,
bravely entering the fray,
bees and butterfly’s follow.

    Great job!

    This piece holds great imagery and is well penned. As soon as I read "sways and dances," I found myself swaying, too. I could literally smell the scent of the tree and hear the humming bird and bees buzzing.

    Nicely complementary pair of linked sedokas - I like the image of birds, bees and butterflies "entering the fray."

    ah the wonder of nature smiles as flutters of wings and songs of nature spiral themselves into the leaves that whisper, a good poem
