A sonnet for my feathered friends |
| Though I fly high and free soaring far past the tallest trees Beneath the blue skies the wind beneath my wings From my place in the sky looking down my heart weeps For below the forest I once called home has changed The sea of green that stretched forever has withered away The trees where so many of us lived gone Most have left to find a safe place to live In a world where all is free I fly till mornings ends Just as the sun goes down I take one last look and sing Though you find it cute it is a song of lost The loss of so many trees that at night when I dream I dream of when it stretched for miles and the sky was filled Filled with colourful feathers and the songs When the sun returns I will fly till I see the sea of green |
