It cools the bird and quenches thirst
Down one swoops to be the first
A placid pool that’s so inviting
Through my window, I hope for sighting
A blue jay, magpie, sleek black raven
All seeking out this wellspring haven
I love the frisky water play
Refreshing as they dunk and spray
It’s more essential as the weather
Overheats their down and feather
We must ensure oasis beckons
Providing more than bright reflection
Restoring dip will respite bring
Whose plumage needs a moistening!
