The Woodpecker Sings

The Woodpecker Sings

The Woodpecker sings,
In a tune we don't follow.
Pecking endlessly,
Like there is no tomorrow.

Words drawn from the heart,
Lost in the long beak.
With piercing eyes,
A little attention it seeks.

Pauses a second to tell us,
The story of his mother's pain.
Forgets not the cragged branch,
Chisels hard, the Woodpecker again.

Oblivious about the emotions it brings,
Endlessly the Woodpecker sings.

It is such a delight to see all the wonderful birds around our house, especially Pileated Woodpeckers. 

Securing an appointment for the COVID vaccine in Oregon is a continuous fiasco (CF). I was up very early on Wednesday to meet up with Vincent and Bella. I hopped onto the Walgreens website and easily signed Jeff up for a vaccine appointment! I feel like I won the lottery!

Thank you for your kind comments on my previous blip, "Red Letter Day."
