To love a mockingbird

in #art8 years ago

I am a mockingbird

Tiny and trim

The sky brings up my limbs

The earth stages my chirr

It’s the way I am 


But when I am singing

Vibrant and vocal 

A soothing voice to the local

A signal to where I am living 

It’s the way I am 


My heart is the lyrics of my song

Forest is where they belong

Dance with my twitchy tail 

The hymn means to prevail 

I mock but it’s not a sin

It’s a way to show that we are kin

It’s the way I’d like to be


I am a mockingbird.

Nice poem. :)
It's unfortunate that it doesn't get more love though.
