While watching animal planet today, I thought of the animals in our backyard, which seemed to be a good subject for writing poetry.  If you are interested to know all the animals running about our backyard, you can find more information from this article.  http://elisaenglish.pixnet.net/blog/post/639394     

I've written the woodpecker living in our house.  This time I am going to write about the pheasant living on our deck.  Can you see how big a hole he pecked on our screen door?  If you would like to see more pictures of the pheasant, please read these articles.   http://elisaenglish.pixnet.net/blog/post/639562   & http://elisaenglish.pixnet.net/blog/post/639552 

A beauty out of this world

My Magnificence, you strut in beauty

Like the Pharaoh, filled with dignity

Crow calls unveil your bumptiousness

Colorful feathers blazon your pompousness

So elegant, so proud

You crow aloud

On our deck, in such grace

You claim your royal place

Eloquence shown over your face

Blazing colors shined through the place

One hue the more, one tone the less

Your presence exuberates all over the place

You are so pretty

Yet so naughty                                                               

Pecking your way into our door

Looking for bugs on our floor

Though you’ve drilled a huge hole

On our door

I have no complaint after all

Your presence is all I’ve been asking for

Nothing can top it all
