Crimson’s Creative Challenge #285 #Magic melody

From high up in the hawthorn tree

a beautiful song drifted down to me

I couldn’t see the melodic bird

but instantly knew what I had heard

not a skylark or even nightingale tweet

but a songthrush with its song so sweet.

    Your poem matches the sweet thrills of the Songthrush so well. We have them here too, in South Africa. If I’m lucky, early in the morning when I go for my walk, I hear their sweet, melodious whistle. That’s a good day!
