I added this poem here because it is a recognition to our forum from me. If it doesn't belong here, then let me know where I should move it to or delete it if it is not a proper thing to post. The photo is of an Old Mesquite tree next to my house, my favorite native tree in my area. :)
I wrote this poem one night this week while at work. It was a slow night in 2 tower and my idle mind began to wander. This poem is heartfelt by me and is how I feel about our forum and the many friends I have made since Wendy and Tony created this place for us to come, hang out on a limb for a spell and visit with our friends about our favorite subjects~~Our Feathered Fabies~~:th_biggrin:

~~The Chatting Tree~~
By De'Andrea M. Bray (Priddy)
There is a place beyond the clouds where flocks of all species gather.
They squawk and they talk and they prance around stately.
Showing off their beautiful feathers.
They gather round the Chatting Tree.
They vie for the choicest limbs.
Some dare to shout~~"Hey, look at me!"
Some view themselves a precious gem.
Many fly in to this Old Tree, they come to check on dear friends.
They leave their mark for all to see.
A scratch here, a feather there.
What's left behind, it all depends.
The Chatting Tree stands ready for all.
It's limbs have nestled quite many.
It longs for the nighttime to hear the last bird call.
It shelters them gently, come one~come plenty.
Yes, this Old Tree beyond the clouds,
Is very well known and friendly.
It is the place I go to be part of the crowd.
My Friends, My Flock, My Family!
It's the Precisely Parrots Forum,
The Tree I speak of so dearly.
It welcomes us home, it's our favorite forum.
There, over there. I see it so clearly.
