Where Do All the Birds Go?

Where do all the birds go? Autumn brings rain The birds............ Gone again Before the winter snow Where do the birds go? Leaving me......... All alone.......... With a leafless tree Birds, flown Yet, not me Where did all the birds go? Quiet flurry of snow........ They gave no sign......... They didn't show...... To follow a sun...... The birds....... The Autumn rain........ Here again.......... The birds... gone.......... One by one Where do all the birds go? I do not know I have no wings, to follow........ I sit and wait for Spring The return of sound........ From the air Feathered things found........ I missed them so I do not have wings, to take me to the sun They left me.......... One by one My heart no longer sings I must wait.......... Until winter is done, and spring has begun
