Red Wolf Wordle 23

It is a miracle
how birds produce fluty trills
from their tiny lungs,
a swallow sings the blues
in fear of  long migration ahead                                                       .
and a peacock screeches punk rock
from the highest branch –
his version of a lovesong for his shining hen.
A bizarre blend of musical vibrations.

 
I took liberties with the case of  some of the words., and I had one or two left over.   You’ll find more wordle poems here

    Wonderful vibrations of bird song you did. The punk rock peacock got me most.

  5. Viv, I loved the peacock screeching punk rock! You’re right – everybody’s got their version of “the call,” and it’s amazing how many like-minded birds (and people) will answer! Thanks, Amy

    Nicely done, Viv. And (btw) you’re supposed to ‘take liberties’ with the words. That’s the whole point of having fun with them. 😀
