Jumbie Bird Flying Over Saw

Bird  
                                     Flying  
                                Above Trees 
                             In the grave yard  
         Hark! That Black Jumbie Bird knows what’s lying there. 

         First the Blue and then the White, SCRATCH the next  
                              “Hurry home all 
                                 Bulldozers 
                                   Coming 
                                     Now  
                                Line bottom 
                              With Concrete, 
                              For extra pay.  
         Will there be in a SHEET as some cultures do?

Richard Lamoureux September 12, 2015 at 9:37 AM The birds seem to thrive in our concrete jungles and will probably be here long after the saws have been silenced. You might enjoy my poem *Black Bird on a wire". Rainbow Promise September 14, 2015 at 11:23 AM Thanks for your comment. I did enjoy your write on "Black Bird on the wire" and a few others too. Best wishes and God bless.
