The Hummingbird

A tiny bundle of energy
Nature's living dynamo 
Shimmering in the summer sun
 Like an emerald jewel
A darting blink in the sky
Visiting  summer flowers
Drinking in sweet nectar
Fuel for a vibrating wonder
Of the feathered world
A tiny king of his domain
Fierce protector
Dainty dancer of the air
A flamboyant spectacle
In miniature
A patient eye
Will permit you to see
This radiant enthusiastic aeronaut
Nature's smallest miracle
