Minute Poetry – Migration

It amazes me how birds fly thousand of miles during migration season, crossing oceans and continents. Here a Minute Poetry for A to Z Challenge


Across meadows and ocean blue,
away they flew,
singing old songs,
of home they long

Zephyr ruffles their tired wings,
lofty cloud clings,
soaring up high,
cerulean sky

Arctic awaits birdy galore,
icy white shores ,
fluffy delight,
marvelous sight.
