chickadees are daring
alert
looking left and right
and right and left and right
before crossing
to capture sunflower kernals
protected by two gray
bears of squirrels
while larger coward birds
cower
chickadees are daring
trail blazers
clearing the way
for tuxedoed juncos
and two timid winter-toned
goldless finches and
the shiest of all
hollyberry red cardinals
who still choose the further
feeder
the chickadees are daring
