Hummingbird
fluttering out
my window
dancing from
bud to bud
one so small
yet so beautiful
the light dances
on you shimmering
wings beating so fast
hovering as you sip
your sweet reward
that helps you fly
wonders of nature
such as you
put me in awe
as i sit here
watching you
fluttering out my window

must have been taken at an incredibly high shutter speed. I don't think my Ixus 60 would be up to it.

I don't think many cameras could handle a shot like that

I used to have some humming birds come to my back yard in Florida. They're so wonderful.
Had some woodpeckers too. Odd creatures.

I like your clear expressionisms here, which come in short (but clear) bouts that state what you feel and also shares what you feel in a very glossy way. A great subject on which to write a poem and also one that a reader could well relate with or translate in other ways personal to them. Very well done you.

 The best thing you can do for your fellow,
next to rousing his conscience, is - not to give him things
to think about, but to wake things up that are in him...
to make him think things for himself - George MacDonald
