Word From Africa

SENDING YOU A WORD FROM AFRICA

            There’s a word
              Slurred word
               Is it heard
                       That word
                           Now blurred
                        On a bird
Flies
Flies away
Break of day
Green hot day
            Piney day
             Smell sway
                      Word sway
                           Flies away
                                       Flies high
                                                    Bird in sky
                                  Look up high
                    Flies high
          Right by
you
