the lonely humming bird


The lonely humming bird
Alone it sits on the branch
In the night after a weary flight
Silently curls its head
On the thin branch it waits

When it is in deep sleep
It doesn't know predators hanging around
On the ground or nearby branches
It is in dreamland...............

The last two nights I saw
The lonley humming bird sits on the branch
I can just reach it and catch the sleepy head
It never knows when predators abound

Quietly on its own
On high bamboo branch it sleeps
Barely camouflage by the bamboo leaves
In the night dreaming in its world
