Bread for Blackbirds

Poetic Form: ae freislighe  An Irish quatrain (four-line stanza) form with multiple-syllable end rhymes. Begin and end the poem with the same word, syllable, or line.

Blackbirds fly in confusion.
Chirping, I hear them calling.
Blackbirds land at location.
Chirping, I hear them talking.

A bird on fence, mesmerize.
I sit there without moving.
Mental notes I analyze.
While bird on ground pecking.

On bread toss to compliment.
Brown feathers female beauty.
She eats, male sit prominent.
Its sleek blackness on duty.

He fly down join another.
And they both eat bread unstirred.
Then hop and sing together,
Black, brown, yellow beaks blackbirds.

Ok, I said it!
