Birdsong
Keep on singing, bird
I cannot see you
as I sit enclosed
by the four walls of my room
But I do not need to see you
with my eyes
Your song goes to the centre
of my being
making me ever aware of
the kinship of my spirit
with yours
I do not hear you anymore
Perhaps you have flown away
but the vibrations
that your song has set up
within my soul
will go on
like the never-ending waves
of the ocean
Thank you, bird
