I Am Phoenix by Paul Fleischmann illustrated by Ken Nutt*

Poems for Two Voices
These poems feature different types of birds.  The poem order is clever as the first poem is about  dawn and the last one is about owls.
To perform these poems, the readers would need to practice often.  I read these aloud with my sons in the mornings.  They were reluctant to read them aloud with me as the lines could be confusing when read at the same time (different words at the same time). 
But, I loved the cleverness and thoughtfulness Mr. Fleischmann utilized to create these poems and think when practiced, they would sound incredible.
*Highly recommend.
-I own this book.
