Blue Jay Charm Poem by Marilyn Lott

Blue Jay Charm

Rating: 5.0


In my lovely and quaint rose garden
Where my brother’s roses dwell
I decided to build a sanctuary
Where water from his fountain fell

You’ll see a structure with houses
And a hotel for the birds to nest
This summer several families
Picked the one they liked the best

I have a robin roost though it seems
The robins really don’t care
But Blue jays find it the perfect place
With birdseed for them to share

There is a park bench placed near-by
For a wonderful park-like view
Where one can sit and relax
I think you’d enjoy it too

So if you would like to come by
To see my wildlife farm
I’ll pour you a glass of sweet tea
And you can enjoy the Blue Jay Charm!

We do not see blue jays in this part of the world...but from your poem, they sound like interesting and charming birds - nice write Marilyn

Marilyn, Sadly in England we don't have the beautiful Blue Jays, but I remember when I lived in Toronto as a child seeing them in the garden along with the Cardinals. Thank you for the reminder of these lovely birds. Top marks and thanks for sharing it with us. Hugs David

Thanks, Marilyn. I adore Blue-Jays but almost never see them out here in the country any more. Occasionally one makes a stop over to drink or for a snack; but it's very rare. I got used to seeing them in the city; I think they are the consummate city bird..and so intelligent, like crows.
