Flittering here to there
Hop flitter flitter hop
From branch to branch
And perch to perch
Dainty as can be
Eating poison ivy fruits
And wild grapes and insects
Hop hop flitter flitter hop
Nesting in the cavities
Of trees and eaves
Laying a clutch
Up to twice a year
With as many as 14 chicks
Flitter hop flitter hop hop
Calling out it’s song
For all to hear

Lovable herald of spring
Beautiful blue feathers

Missouri State bird

Spiders
I have a spider in my shower. I have taken a shower in there three times despite this knowledge and it haunts me between each drop of water, each brush against the wall or showerhead. I do not know where it lurks. I saw it once and since then it has maintained a steady hidden location, to which my eyes only half-heartedly search.
