A young Great-Tailed Grackle 
Sat contentedly on a tree branch 
Enjoying the warmth of the lovely morning sun 

Its glossy feathers glistened 
In the light as it chirped happily 
Filling the air with charming melodies 

Resonating throughout the peaceful surroundings 
The little bird appeared to delight 
In the moment, soaking in the vibrant sights 

And sounds of nature, as if celebrating 
The joy of a fresh new day 
In this peaceful, friendly display
