Weathered Feathers

Listen to poem:

Flutter, flutter my little bird, Always seen always heard… Sing; sing with your wounded wing, All the sweet sounds that you bring… Joy, joy my tender toy, Don’t know if you’re a girl or boy… Fly, fly toward my heart, For I shall heal you before you part… Smile, smile and stay awhile, Before you embark on your many mile… Stay, stay for only today, Come morrow, you are free to fly away.

oh my what a provocative video! That was pretty cool to keep watching the birdie as I heard your pretty voice reading the poem.

WW, So nice a bird with the freedom to fly. Once mended, a bird's wing wants to take flight. Well said. -Richard

I just love the way you did this, W.W. The repetition is especially effective, methinks. Such a tender write about a bird. Best of luck in the contest. ~ Gershon
