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!
