Bob Marley - Three Little Birds

Fleeting Moments

And, this bird loves to sing its songs...

Fleeting Moments

Holographic blue, and crimson green satin,

shimmer beneath the sun, as soft-pink silk

glistens upon the edges of tiny, intricate wings.

Caressed by the cool, gently flowing sea breeze,

glossy wings stroke the azure skies,

dreamily; effortlessly.

And, this bird loves to sing its songs!

In the distance, vaguely noticeable against the daytime hustle,

high-pitched, yet sweetly delicate notes of joy, echo throughout

the deep, lavender skies.

While barely detectable, fading into the background,

these whimsical, cheery songs manage to lure

the busy ones below, into an invisible connection

of deep sentiment, inspiring fleeting moments of love,

kindness, and tenderness, toward one another.

And, this bird loves to sing its songs!

Fleeting Moments

Fleeting Moments

John 15:13

“Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.”

Jesus went above and beyond this, though; He not only lay down his life for his friends (being that of human form, and therefore experiencing all sensations of horrid pain that drenched his every unsheathed, raw nerve ending, and defied all human understanding), but he also took on this gruesome, ongoing torture for even those who were the same ones that subjected Him to these dark persecutions, cruelties, and blatant, undeserving hatred, that they might turn from their ways, and also be recipients of his Life-Giving Sacrifice.

Truly, there is no Greater Love.

Fleeting Moments

A continuous connection- an interaction- between nature, and ourselves, exists, even if we are not always fully aware of it. Of course, this is meant to be, since The Lord created all of nature, as well as creating us! However, it is through the universal manipulation of our external environment that we find this connection being altered, at times. But, nevertheless, this great, steadfast bond is still there.

Sometimes the things which we are so passionately searching for are already within our possession!

Dream On,

Birds are a joy to see and also to hear. And, your comments are a joy to read!

DREAM ON on March 15, 2018:

The birds are back to nibble and peck. It wouldn't it be strange if all birds are related in some way like people. The ancestry of birds. Just what curious minds want to know. I enjoyed the lovely pictures once again.

Thank you, Dream On, for coming by to visit the birds :-)

I enjoy seeing the birds any time of the day. Now when I don't see them in my yard I know I can come here and enjoy their colors and their beauty. One of Gods special creatures. I come here happy and leave even happier. How nice is that. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you, Chitrangada! I love feeding the birds, too :-)

Thank you for your delightful comment.

Flourish,

We have lots of birds of all colors, and many songs, that fly amongst the many trees in our backyard. It is such a blessing to watch them, and see their pretty colors!

Thank you for your kind visit!

I love nature-inspired poetry and especially birds. We feed so many of them in our backyard and live to watch them. Our cats enjoy watching from the windows too!

Birds are such beautiful little creatures. I loved your poem Tamara. The photo's are so cute. I love bird watching and listening to them sing. They bring such joy, don't they?
