Wondering aloud

He carefully steals nectar

This spy among thieves

I look above, Perchance to See
As Fire paints the Night
Colors blending Perfectly
With the soon Approaching Twilight

Shadows begin to cross the land
Seeking out their slumber
And I Take in the Last of Day
And all there is to Wonder

As Sun sets slowly in the western Sky
Casting her Glow on my Face
She bows to the Moon with a Wink of her Eye
As he Silently takes her Place

Alone and lost amid verdant ground,

High upon the wood, I’m found, looking

For ones who look like me, the ones

Who form my family, for without them,

I’d just gaze about, wondering

What my life’s about, afraid to climb

To soaring heights, afraid that maybe

I just might, fail to spread my wings and fly,

Fail to find the reason why, I was left here,

By myself, a lonely bird, upon a shelf

Beneath the brilliant, cloudless blue

The starling sings a song or two

A joyful chorus, across the sky

His melody, for passers by

A tune he chirps, without a care

Yet, one that makes you stop and stare

For his feathers are rich, in colors bright

A charming bird, in daytime light

Such a beautiful sight, for all to see

Sweet wonder of nature, implicitly

Like clouds floating by, she is windswept

With the flowing air, her dreams well kept

Tranquil waters, soothing, a balm

Bringing her peace of mind, a calm

That joins together, as the night does fall

And nestles her, like a comforting shawl

Gathering thoughts, of life and love

Watching as darkness covers above

Still, over her shoulder she gazes afar

Wondering where her dreams really are
