Hummingbird

In a forest on a cool, spring morning day.
She looks down at two majestic ducks swimming along with faces lit up like children in play.
Watching as they depart from each other to go on separate paths,
Only to meet again, on the other end, forming a perfect heart on the other half.
The light from the sun cascading through the foliage reflects so brilliantly off the dark waters of the pond.
bills touching with grace and elegance, time freezes holding the shape of a heart as if one of the bills were a magic wand.
Butterflies, bees, and birds stay suspended so splendid above all.
Two ducks with bibs facing means the butterflies, bees, and birds will never fall.
The only thing that moves is the two ducks and the blinking of the hummingbird’s eye.
Oh-- and the clouds that still float so high way up in the sky.
The calming sound of a nothingness, covers the entire scene.
The color of love today, would be the forest sporting green.
Suddenly time is moving again, with a cool breeze leading the way.
Hummingbird-- oh hummingbird-- be with your love today.
