I saw a hummingbird today
while walking on an old pathway
The sweetest sound I've ever heard -
today I saw a hummingbird
She hovered in mid-air with grace
First up, then down - she claimed her space
Her jewel-toned colors added flair
With grace she hovered in mid-air
With motivation for her food
that puts her in a happy mood
she uses undulation
for her food with motivation
