Hummingbird Dancer
A Haiku poem
Jan 8, 2022
As an avid gardener, I’ve tried many times to photograph a hummingbird drinking from the trumpet flowers. These tiny wonders are quite elusive so I settled for a beautiful image from a professional. Here’s the haiku it inspired.
The Dance of the Hummingbird
Ballerinas pause
on pink satin tippytoes
drinking in applause.
’Til next time, I hope you get the chance to watch some birds dancing where you are.
