Nature in the spring

Nature in the spring

I hear a little bird chirping in the tree top
Could this mean the beginning of spring?
Whilst not to mention
Feathers need attention
And all the little birds have a song to sing

I see a squirrel brushing up his fur coat
Time to look dapper and find a lady friend
Jumping though the branches
Showing off he prances
Leaping tree to tree with a signal to send

Out of hibernation come hedgehogs and dormice
Butterflies and moths start to flutter in the sun
Insects scurrying
Endless hurrying
Nature in the spring is a great deal f fun

Thank you.
I have some 70 odd poems mostly silly nonsense . Quite a fwew have been published in papers etc. Hardly a telent for a dyslexic really.
I can't spell a word the same way twice in one sentence and as for left v right forget it.

... you'll have to put some more up.

I can't do 'grown-up' stuff very well, but I do a few for my nieces and nephews...

Bird In The Sky

Watch that bird in the sky, he makes wheels and he whirls,
he patterns his flight with big loops and long curls.
He swoops and he dives like a small acrobat,
I stand here just wishing that I could do that.
