THE POETRY OF BIRDS:


The poetry of birds is scribed in ink with silken feather,

Etched in blood on parchment, velum, upon old leather,

Wending, waxing & waning, from ink-pots, in spiral spill,

Falling softly onto virgin page, from moving errant quill.

 

Lover´s odes & sonnets, upon nightingale´s sweet tongue,

Serenades trilled in joy, from blackbird´s dawn-filled lung,

Heralding in all new seasons, the tiny songbird gaily sings,

The poetry of birds soars to heaven, on soft & velvet wings.

 

Rhymes & rhythms plucked, on cacophony of musical song,

Caressing breezes in verse, in tales & stories, short & long,

Humming souls soaring to heaven, upon soft & plumy words,

Poetry, offered prayers, within the warbling hearts of birds.
