A quaint looking bird
flew into my garden
multicoloured it was
green, yellow and red
all merged as one
a beautiful combination
not seen so long in life
with a yellow beak sharp
and fluffy feathers dotted black.
it being so charming and alluring
stood there for a minute
enchanting and capturing the eyes
that had the opportunity to perceive
it posed for that sixty seconds so elegantly
then took off on a flight forceful
flying towards lands far off
over the huge ocean and high mountains
I know not where it went
and knew not where it came from.
All the same it was an apparition
keenly seen and delightfully felt.
