buzzing underfoot
bee’s legs heavy with pollen
white clover’s sweetness

It’s Carpe Diem‘s 4th anniversary month with special guest, Kala Ramesh. Also sharing with dVerse Poetics (see Lillian’s prompt) because this sunbird “razzle dazzles” me!
feathered malachite
iridescence shimmers in
delicate balance
sunbird stretches to blossom
sip of nectar’s sweet reward

wings’ wild
whir-ring
paused…
black bead-eyes
scan scene
sharp proboscis
points
iridescent avifauna
dips
deeply
of
honeyed nectar
and wishes for dinner companion.
