Cecilia Patterson Poet Lyric

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.
