Hummingbird

floating with flitter
drink nectar sweet
from tubas and horns
from brass instruments pink

fast wings keep rhythm
with fast silent singing
performing with pulse
of theatrical dancing

feathers violently red
shimmer in flight
beneath colored shade
reflecting the light

a bearer of fire
of heaven's winged hues
deaf vision of lyre
heaven's meek Muse
