Rapturous In Song

He sang in joyous, full refrain Rapturous in song, Happy he, with life itself I longed to sing along. I was lost within his sweet, sweet tune Enraptured by his glee, Briefly life was blissful As the robin sang for me. His world, uncomplicated A happier soul than I. Oh how I envied him, As he took to the sky.

Gary, such joyous expression in you lovey and lively imagery. Like you, I love birds and their songs. Wouldn't it be nice though, if we could take to the skies and leave all our problems behind..? I love the emotion in your last stanza.. A beautiful poem! Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
