Today Mother You Sang At My Window

Mother always told me of the connection Between she and the many birds I belive they sang together For her beautiful voice Above all others Could always be heard. Today with the sun bleaming thur my window Yet the coolness still filling the air The black crow that comes here often Is singing loudly As tho there is a message to be shared. I hear you mother and I do know Why you have again visited You are letting me know How deeply you do still care. I know my days are numbered And you know of the same I have been working hard on getting prepared But I guess my pace I need to increase Tho a faster pace Will cause quite a burden It will cause a greater strain. Nothing comes easy Not even death As it pulls at your lifes' string You must accept whatever It is about to bring. Mother keep singing to me For all the notes I do understand I welcome them with knowledge Tho through a bird's voice You loudly sing.
