| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 04/16/04 at 06:09 PM As a life long (unofficial) bird watcher, I really enjoyed this lively highly visual piece Mary Ellen. Superb rhyming...not forced; quite lyricial. |
| Posted by David R Spellman on 04/17/04 at 11:53 PM So cool when we can add to the natural landscape with our simple offerings... and then to be able to write about it is such an added plus! An excellent moment so perfectly captured --- cudos to you for both! |

Yes, birds are something else to watch the way they buld their nest. Yes, they will use just about anything, even cig butts too. |

| Posted by Kathleen Wilson on 01/03/06 at 06:41 PM Your ribbon added to the nest is really a charm...
whether real or imaginary...it is real here, vividly expressed and dynamic. You've woven an enduring poem-nest... braided words with your red ribbon beautifully entwined! |
| Posted by Karl Waldbauer on 04/19/06 at 05:41 AM Lyrical, that's what this poem is. You've created a picture of Spring's thrilling experiences. When I finished reading it I was so very spellbound. |

| Posted by Maude Curtis on 03/27/09 at 03:01 PM I loved this poem for I to love to watch the birds in their nest building. |
