Where the Bluebirds Sing

Oh my heart, my heart, my heart I hold in my hand, And I bring it to you, my love, on this rainy day I come; Where the wind takes my hair and I walk among the rows, The quiet rows of headstones. Our destiny was decided above, There was no time for us written. Our love but a moment in time and then our dreams died. We thought we had forever, Tears is all I have to give you; And my heart, my heart is yours. And if I fall along the way in this life, will you take my hand? Will you carry me along? I know you dwell above, Where the bluebirds sing. And if I fall along the way will you take my hand and carry me? We thought we had forever. . . Oh, why does love have to die! _________________________ June 16, 2015 Verse unrhymed Submitted in the contest, Any Old Poem #10, sponsor, Skat Fifth Place

Hello Broken Wings!! This is a very well-done unrhymed verse write. The words you use are heart rendering and quite poignant to the theme. And your final stanza says it all. Excellent Work, and a "7"!! Best Always, Gary
