Haunted by a black bird sitting in a tree Gray clouds swirling are all I can see Confusion is wrapped up in a mystery As the black bird tilts its head looking at me In the midst of winter, on branches bare The ebony bird continues to stare A storm is coming as its caws declare Soon snowflakes will be everywhere Chilling ebony calls with ivory on the way The eye of the storm, is nearby today Cackling answers will come into play To unravel life's clues, here where I stay Snowfall begins, the storm is extreme All through the night it falls as it deems I drift off to sleep in this wintry theme Haunted by a blackbird cawing in my dream
