Down Where the Mockingbird Sings

Down where the Mockingbird sings And the love affair grows Between the cat and tiny dog And the chorus from roosters flow A bright red-orange sun arises There fog touches cool dew Almost the same as yesterday's start Well! Changes_ there are few Life issued some bad blows for one No! Worse for one but more A whole family in grief_ mourns Up where politicians bore Down where a soft gentle rain falls A zephyr whips brown leaves Our lives go on but one life stopped One family still grieves finis'..
