My gratitude to you seken58 for sharing this wondrous and cacophonous poem with fans, myself and other readers/writers. Wyatt called the cacophonous because of the birds cawing and their spirited cries filled the air with their unlikely tones. The rhymes were done very well and neither of the rhymes with force, labored or strained. The rhythm was a combination of iambic pentameter and free-form both were done very well and made it easy for me to read your poem and understand it as well. You have a good one and God bless.

I loved the rhyme scheme so much, you followed the meter flawlessly to match the speed. Good usage of imagery as well and I always enjoy poetry inspired by nature. I noticed in the third stanza that you said focused consecutively. When read aloud (as all good poets read poetry) it weakens the rhythm of the poem and makes it falter because it is a repeated word. I would change it to something like...
I've come to just sit and listen awhile,
Immersed with writing in poetic style,
Distractions are few and hardly noticed,
It's plain to all that I'm really focused.

Thank you for your review.
I have taken your advice and changed the word "focused" in one instance to "intent."

The poem simply exudes a sense of the magical quality of this special place on the planet. In our otherwise noisy world noise pollution inhibits our enjoyment of the sounds of Nature.
