A Christmas Tree Birdsong

Tweeting and Chirping- a Villanelle

They choreograph a song across the creek.

This morning, they surprised me with a treat.

Tweeting and Chirping — my garden Christmas tree can speak.

*

Nature's sopranos charge the air with each squeak,

Serenading with a chorus so sweet.

They choreograph a song across the creek.

*

Lightly perched upon branches as an antique,

Their voices flowed like a river to a place of retreat.

Tweeting and Chirping — my garden Christmas tree can speak.

*

Melodies rise and swoop — an orchestra so unique.

To hear them is to know joy is always on repeat.

They choreograph a song across the creek.

*

Beneath their wings, the sun begins to peek,

Gracing the green leaves with a golden sheet.

Tweeting and Chirping — my garden Christmas tree can speak.

*

Their song is magic as each note will seek

A heart that is longing to steady the rhythm of each beat.

They choreograph a song across the creek.

Tweeting and Chirping — my garden Christmas tree can speak.
