The Return
by Filipa Estrela

They're BACK!
They're BACK!
The Humming Birds are back!

The minuscule warriors of the Sun,
have once again return.
The sound of their buzzing wings,
in my ear still rings.

The first was but a scout.
He came so close i could have shout.
He was a valiant one,
a courageous one.
His chest was a bloody red
and it glistened as he flew above my head.
He observed as to see if anything was new,
and then into the heavens he flew.

But he is but a first.
Soon more will come to quench their thirst.
And may this glorious day,
the fifth of May,
be remembered forever more
as the day of the Return of more.

The return of more tiny warriors.
The Tiny Ruby-Throated Warriors of the Great Sun.
