Mockingbird

I am the mockingbird darkened gray and black singing out a melody, rhythms found and repacked. Everybody has heard me sing once or maybe twice familiar melodies on the wing sweet and nice. Look for me in shadowed trees listen to me sing amidst the birds and bees the continual flow of notes I bring. . Here I come again flitting then stationary perched loud and bold prayers of when I found God's presence in nature's church. Edward Ibeh Personification contest 7/18/19 Carly Simon and James Taylor "Mockingbird" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WM_R-6AKHE
