Typewriter Series #2697 by Tyler Knott Gregson

A chipmunk, a pine siskin,
and a bumblebee
together in my bird feeder,
inches apart, none of them
bothered at all.  
A ground squirrel joins them,
another chipmunk
follows, and soon the feeder
is overflowing.

No one is turned away,
though the food is
dwindling,
no one forces the other
out.  

Wisdom comes in many forms,
if we’d only learn
to listen.
