Bird Wing


She smells of soft and feathery things

 Her mother's love and angel wings.

 Her call is like the catbird's cry

 Her mama runs and so do I

 Whenever we hear that plaintive song 

 as it

 Rings through Northview's sunny halls.......

 The call of the wild granddaughter


 Early, late, and often

    REv. Paul, thanks, she really does sound exactly like a catbird when she first starts making "come 'n' get me noises". So much so that I throw my head up and listen closer whenever I hear the bird.

    Nita, I think she usually is. lol

    Jan, oh, yeah!

    Linda, thanks, I'm glad.

    Cathy, thanks. I let it sit for a while, because I couldn't rhyme the last part and then I said the heck with it. Not as if it is meant for the ages, just a silly little thing that came to me when I was holding her out on the porch a few weeks ago.

    Joated, thanks!
