Song of the Meadowlark
Song of the Meadowlark
In the air, a lark on wing,
Who lightly perches
On a ranch fence wire,
Then softly sings
With heartfelt desire
and intensity
That catches my attention;
Its feelings extended
And plea unreturned,
Like so many
Gifted warblers of vocal sound
Yearning for affection.
The song is carried
Across the lea on the breeze,
Wishfully seeking,—enticing
A response to the aria.
On this, we hopefully agree
That moxie will be rewarded.
