A beautiful Birdie!

So now for the big news! Family day, I got a call, that my niece Tara had delivered her baby!
I tried my best to wait but I did rush in to see her that day!
Babies name is Birdie Patrica , named in part for her grandmother (my mom Patricia) her Cree name is Pyesis (Bird ) her dad is Cree.
Anyhow, I  wrote a poem for Tara, when we found out she was expecting, and it was posted here.
Well after meeting Birdie, another poem came to me.
 I have had an odd relationship with birds of late, with a raven hanging around very close to the house over the past year or so since mom passed, also Eagles and owls staying near and gracing my presence more than usual.
I guess they were trying to tell me something!
Not all the photos are mine, I have scoffed some from family off of Facebook

 Proud Grandfather 

Ecstatic Grandmother ! Nana Heather !

 Great Auntie Sherry , Great Uncle Martin

 The beautiful little family

 Already the apple of her dads eye! 

Great  Grandpa Ron! 

 Loving Auntie Dee 

 Great Great Auntie Elsie

Me and "my" girls my heart is full 

 And here is the poem

A little Bird Story

The raven and crows chuckled out their delight

Staying just out of reach

But not out of sight,

They would laugh and tease

A secret they knew

A secret I asked?

No, we won’t tell you!

An eagle soared high

And the grouse started drumming

What’s it all about?

There’s a miracle coming!

A single white feather drifted to the ground

The message it brought

there is hope to be found!

Excitement and joy in all far and near

Be patient, said wise owl

The times not yet here

Then suddenly, magically

On a morning, so bright.

The Chickadees sang their song of delight!

And what did the little birds sing on that day?

That Birdie Patricia, had come home to stay!

That is all for now .

Stay safe friends!
