The words in your poem sure describe the sounds of a hummingbird. Fluttering is exactly the sound of the wings. One thing about a hummingbird they can fly backward.

"Rhapsody" was a new word for me. I looked it up and it says "an effusively enthusiastic or static expression of feeling."

Their winds bring meaning to the flutter. It would seem that the little birds are "enthusiastic" for feeders as they make their way from yard to yard.

That?s exactly right. I hadn?t thought of it in that way but they are enthusiastic little creatures. Thanks so much for reading this.

Hello Author, you've chosen to write about something that I enjoy a lot. Before I moved we had hummingbirds every year around the house. We even had one show up one winter, which shocked me. They are a delight to observe. Thanks for sharing this.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom
