Nature At Home : Animal Poetry

Blackberry prickles ,white bristles on thistles .
Bees in buttercups have flew ..

Fallen down leaves with mist in the trees .
Squirrels squeak and white owl twit who .

Water lilies and frogs , hollowed out logs  .
Mosquitoes and dragonflies too  .

White swans and fish .
Calm water splashing  .
A mirror of reflections set free ..

Stopping and hopping .
Buzzing and flopping ,
Mother Nature we hear and see .
