Praising A Mockingbird

Wily fraudster of thicket,
O mimic master, you‘re deft.
Proud of every pilfered note,
avian clown, you bring joy
with echoed tunes, not owning.
Feathered minstrel of garden,
you allure with borrowed hymn.

And ,feathered minstrel, please return. J :) Subimal Sinha-Roy October 26, 2025 at 12:17 AM Thank you so much for your read and for enjoying the poem.
