Busy Birds
There are birds
who’s job it is
to feed other birds
Parents, of course
dropping appropriate nutrition
into yellow lined
demanding mouths
and birds at feeders
who toss seeds
to friends and foes below
Do they throw the rejects
not worth their effort?
or the prime ones?
do they count-
‘one for me- three for you’?
or is it, totally
random?
Ground birds clamour
happy and fat
Some seeds escape
-sprout
Sunflowers and thisel

A very strong ending that says much about nature’s role in this world.
This was a fun read.
