My Love Is Like a Bird

My love is like an Owl Knowledgeable and deep and wise My love is like the Raven With magic behind its eyes My love is like an Eagle Its lineage crowned most high My love is like a Lark So swift and scarce and shy My love is like the Peregrine Soaring silent above the hill My love is like the Dove Spreading peace and good will My love is like the Stork Bringing life so fair and bright My love is like the Sparrow It’s intuition for life’s fading light My love is like the Albatross Floating high on fair winds My love is like the Crow The darkened portent that it sends My love is like the fabled Tern Crossing continents the status quo My love is like the Penguin With its tuxedo in the snow My love is like the Mynah Able to sing any song or say My love is like the Rooster Heralding each brand new day But most of all my love is like the Lovebird Her loving song oft heard That perfect pair to my person And the inspiration for these words
