I Heard a Bird Singing

I heard a bird singing As I was on my way It led direction for me As it took my breath away It warbled cheerfully, From a tree above the snow It spread its song gleefully, What kind of bird, I wanted to know I heard a bird singing Its melody surrounded me I turned in circles bringing, Each note closer, to be free It sounded like spring, in winter A happy, fresh new start Helping to release the splinter And heal the pain within my heart Heidi Sands 2/22/20
