A sound
I know it well
I hear it every morning
Outside my window
Perching on a tree branch
In my backyard
His home away
From home
My alarm clock
Always on time
A cup of coffee
To start my morning
As I watch him enjoying
His morning treat
A moment of pure joy
Contentment
Tranquility
Our morning bliss
No worries
Just breathing in
The fresh air
I want to stay in my
Little bubble for a while
I envy him sometimes
He’s free to fly
Wherever he wants
I want to go
Where he goes
To be free
To let go
To fly high in the sky
To go wherever I please
No interruption
No chaos
He’s so small
So magical
So beautiful
So powerful
He leaves every night
Taking flight
In the night sky
To places unknown
Wishing I could
Fly away with him
