Could the Creator Ever Make Another Thing as Grand as That? (Short Poem)
The author reads a super short poem he published with a clever whimsical twist at the end. Fits right in with TEACHER TAILS. And if you admire humming birds even better.
Could The Creator Ever Make Another Thing As Great As That?
I sit aglow, my muscles tense
Absorbed, they buzz above the fence
They hover, dive, swoop, and scatter
With mindless blather tweet and chatter
These tiny baubles, iridescent and plumed
The Creator's helicopters neatly groomed
Dip, linger, waver, and then hang
Sipping nectar, a feathered gang
What a spectacular joy to view
Ruby-throated and of fiery hue
Dart and soar with miniscule wing
Even now they twattle and sing
I love them more than I can say
You see, I contemplate them every day
Could our Creator make another thing as Grand as that?
Of course she could and did you see. For I am a cat...
