Mockingjay Mellark Poems

He's the hero fighting strong
Fighting hard to fix the wrongs
He's the hero with the sword
Who with one hand can chop aboard
...

O' angel of heaven
O' angel of light
When you gaze at a looking glass
O what beholds your sight?
...

Ivory and Ebony

Night brings to mind
Ivory and ebony
...

I woke with the sun's rays
And the roosters too
I woke to hear the early birds
And listened to them coo
...

Who and what art thou, o Youth
That thou hast fast flown by like a bird in the sky
Whilst in you, your enemy Time didst drag
But now he's blurred and you've waved bye
...

If I died twice over
Or if I lived forever
It's You who'd always be in my heart
It's always been You from the start
...

The chariot that takes you there
Is made of glass and gold
Some call it Death's wheels
Others call it the vehicle to home
...

I believe I can fly
And if I believe
It may come true
So I will believe this forever
...

On wings of stolen time
Flying through the sky
Lasses of laughter
Left far behind
...
