Songbird

A delicate songbird pampered though caged love and trust not of issue she will stay on and sing while through the bars she is slipping when the timing is right to emerge a raven cloaked by the night indulging in passions beyond little bird song only love for her keeper has her returned before dawn

A gilded cage...cloaked as a raven at night. What a subtle way to describe songbirds and nightbirds :) Wonderful

Subtle, charming, an interesting poem, as much for what it doesn't say as for what it says. John
