Melody

Branch upon branch I hop Singing my lyrics in the air A song of calling. Tree to tree I fly Mine is a search For a partner, for love. I take a moment to preen Have my coat tidy For I am out to impress. For a moment I scan the lands Distant and wide Hoping to spot the one I can love. Melody and pitch I compose my tune At times I croon Another I raise my notes..... My song is the same I need someone to love me. At times I fly Making dance in the air Circles and loops.......... I want to be noticed I reach for the clouds Then again back again. My cause is stated My language spoken Hoping to reach a receptive ear. As I prepare to go to my nest tonight A question lingers Will it be you to love me?
