Birds of winter sing,
a melodic song,
wandering far wide
sailing on wings.
Gelid winter weather,
oh! so strong,
but tender feathery birds,
enjoy snowy splendor as
they sing along.
They give music to
unheard words,
warming every niche ,
and infuse zest to
passing herds.
With their music of
wavy pitch,
I’ll remember winter
with songs to enrich.

"They give music to unheard words," - how beautiful and perfect! Yes, the world would be so much less without birdsong.

lovely poem for the birds...it is very windy and cold here today and our birds are hunkered down.
I so love the hopeful songs of winter birds.
Oh, it is good that there are SOME birds that like winter & still sing their tunes.
