Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

A Bird's Eye View

a bird’s eye view of
neighbourly towns
sharing borders

peaceful coexistence
reciprocity of economics
and amicable exchanges

what’s in a border
a line drawn in the sand
respectful of our differences

down deep we’re all the same
wanting the good life
live each day in harmony

Vegter Papyrus October 13, 2019 at 2:20 PM We have to start by erasing these borders. And love finally blossoms. Nice write! Line Gauthier October 13, 2019 at 2:24 PM Thanks for your much appreciated visit and comment, Vegter. Birds know no borders and they seem happy. LOL
