You provide a delightful image as you describe humming birds darting from flower to flower. They are a joy to watch as they hover and enjoy the sweet nectar of flowers. This poem is beautifully crafted. Best wishes in the contest.

I enjoyed the opening of your poem with the alliteration on the (f) letter. These fluttering friends are a joy and I have never seen a real hummingbird as we don't have them in the UK, a fine poem, love Dolly x x x

An excellent entry for the Free Verse Poem contest. I love watching hummingbirds on my porch where they come right up near us and are unafraid. Lovely poem. Good luck in the contest

This poem, Conversations with a Hummingbird, covers the many entries that the buzzing bird has presented itself to the poet. Certainly, the only still hummingbird I have ever seen is in a book.

Enjoyed your poem about conversing with a hummingbird. You describe the antics of the frenetic little bird so well. And I have seen them hover and sometimes rest. What a special moment captured in your poem! Best wishes in the contest!

Gansach,
This is an excellent poem about the hummingbird. Did you know some scientists think hummingbirds are a deviant cross between an insect and a bird, a fluke that happened thousands of years ago? --National Geographic.
Nonetheless your poem symbolizes the beauty of making a friend without tethering it . She comes to you gracefully and willingly.
What a wonderful poem. Nice photo too.
Best wishes,
Cindy

Thank you so much! I have seen Hummingbird Moths which I at first mistook for a hummingbird, but I hadn't heard about the idea of birds being a cross between insect and bird. Interesting!

Free verse I find has both qualities, this makes some things easier and some things harder. I can see you watching the birds movements. I see you marveling at his ability To stay aloft. Good writing. karen
