Song Birds of Dream

The song birds
Of my dreams   
Sit on the sill
(Where I sleep )
And sing achingly
I get drifted 
In the world. 
I crave for it
When I am 
All awake.
Would that 
The songs take 
Over my life!
Just then …
My wife calls
Out to me 
For a walk 
Frightening 
The birds away 
I open my eyes 
To see the world
Filled with elegy
