Today, I have a date with a hummingbird…
I have found that being alone with a hummingbird can change my whole perspective…
For me there is nothing more refreshing…
Except, maybe, a nice roll in the grass.

Hummingbirds live in a world of harmony…
With easy swells and swirls…
You will never find them puzzled over some worn out map…
Because they have no destination in particular.

Their wings are scrolled with beautiful blues and greens…
Their necks soaked in reds…
Hopping from one bush to the next…
With no need for spires or temples.

I tell my friend, “If you like, you can kiss my nose…”
Let’s separate this picture from everything else…
Drift away into nothingness…
Over a deep blue lake.

Humans can be such strange creatures…
With all their worries and fears…
But the hummingbird has given me some advice to share…
Worries only block the views to the sea.

I love you,

Annie
