The Skylark

Somewhere in the park The early skylark Sings with verve, his stolen notes. Weaves them with his own, Makes them his alone. On him the rapt poet dotes. The poet will write How in late of night The small skylark sings his song. He flies very high. He seems above sky Sounds like the sky sings along. 7/21/14 For Dr. Mehta's contest

Hi Joyce, Perfectly describes how we can hear a bird singing but on looking for it, seldom is it visible to the human eye. Although it uplifts our spirits at the time. I enjoyed reading your interpretation very much. Good luck in the contest. Regards Theresa xx
