Ohh Yee Hummingbird Swimming In My Head Before Bed

Ohh yee 

Multicolored feathered luminous 

Hummingbird

Perilously perched on the tree ahead

Recently just since landed here

Currently now drawing in such deep breaths 

Filling up your lungs with every gasp

Expanding your barreled chest

In order so you can

Sing and humm me

I alone a natural lullaby 

In order to show me what it must be like

To fly free above a placid lake

Shimmering without a wake

And then afterwards please promise me 

Once you are done and through with me 

You will move on

So you can make another person's

Dream come true

And on your way

Disappear behind a rainbow

Leaving a trace and shower

Of a billion golden flakes and sprinkles

Wakes and trails
