Woodpeckers search for secret code

A code will open a door...

There is a beautiful Woodpecker that has a way of 

knocking that captures my attention while other birds 

chirp and twitter their winter songs of Christmas Carols... 

Woody seems to know Morse Code as he sends a message 

far and wide that there is a Star to follow on the Eve of 

Christmas.... whereby we will celebrate the birth of a 

newly borne Child who by example may save our world.  

"Knock and it shall be opened unto you... seek and ye shall find".  

Merry Christmas ... Bless you and yours...

Pat, you’re a poet who inspires me to not only be a better poet but a better human being. I would’ve never seen a woodpecker in this light. It’s a fresh and welcome perspective.

Not long ago, while cutting firewood with my dad, I heard a woodpecker in a nearby tree. Up to that point, we’d heard so many wonderful birds, including an eagle. I said to my dad, “You know the woodpecker is like the drunk guy in the bar who talks over everybody because he’s starved for intention.” I like your perspective much better. :)

dear Robert... your perspective is humorous... my Mother passed at age 58 of cancer, but two years before she passed, I introduced her to a man named Woodie who was a Widower. If I had told her he had a wooden leg and chewed Tobacco she may not have agreed to meet him. He was so charming with a thick southern accent that she fell for him immediately. Alas, myself and Woody were with her when she passed. So I really dedicate this poem to Woody who was a Believer, and would love this poem, but now Woody has passed. Let us Rejoice and enjoy each day to the fullest. Thanks for the lovely complement. I shall try to be deserving. truly, Pat

dearest Sami... your reviews Have so much reverence and make us feel very special.
In the last couple weeks we have a Woodpecker at our Bird Feeder... which is unusual and looks exactly like the photo at the top of my poem. I wanted to write a poem about him... and it just flowed along like the lights of the 🎄 Christmas Season. Thank you 🙏 for being so Gracious. truly, Pat

Wow! What an imagination you have and a wondrous take on Christmas. Very lovely and mesmerizing. I love hearing those knocks and seeing them in action. I'm amazed all of that does not make them dazed!!!
Amazing poem and creatures.
Merry Christmas.

dear Sami... it is amazing how Woodpeckers are determined to
do what was designed for them to pursue.
Sometimes I think they were trained by Frank Lloyd Wright to be an Architect to let the light shine through. tenderly, Pat

dear Sami... by the way, a young girl in school was asked by the teacher, “do you know the meaning of the word Saint”. The young girl answered that her Father had taken her to the Parish where the live... and she saw the lovely stained glass windows... So she told her Teacher that a Saint is someone whom the Light shines through.”. Amen and a blessed Christmas... Pat
