Bird Food

If I were a bird

I would be undeterred

By a squirrel or raptor or cat.

I would trust in my need

To secure some good seed

And determine just where it is at.

Yard to yard I would go 

‘Til the habits I’d know

Of the humans whom feeders would fill.

Then I’d zoom in to eat,

Telling others, by tweet,

It’s a good place for dipping your bill.

For those birds that exist

With no feeders, they’ve missed

Such an easy and flight-friendly meal,

But with berries and worms,

Surely they’ve come to terms

With those foods that have natural appeal.
