Birds {10 short poems}
Oh, you little birds;
Happy to see you in your nest, so pretty,
so nice clinging to your mother’s breast
Wish my castle
Be like your nest where
God always rests
Wish to speak to you
In softest words, don’t shy away
As it pains me all the way
In a day, you will fly away
Sweet birds, up in the sky a happy fly
Not known to me your way
Only your songs
Treasured in my memory will
Chase you wherever you go and stay
Clear and blue is the sky
Grasses green and trees in leafage anew
You seem happy singing all day through
Such is the power of your
Liquid notes melting down darkness
Into dawn to greet the day-king at morn
Carry live orchestra on wings
Deliver priceless melodies at will, so tender
And serene that attract all to your ring
Always happy, through field
And forest you fly to where you care
Trilling your gratefulness to earth and sky you share
Oh, birds, tell me your secrets
Of happiness that I long for ever
Or carry me on your wings to Heaven
Where happiness flows ever and ever.......
By lyrical perception we know that living things join in the unfolding of time: SUCH IS THE POWER OF YOUR/ LIQUID NOTES MELTING DOWN DARKNESS/ INTO DAWN... By lyrical imagination, one realm of experience merges with another: CARRY LIVE ORCHESTRA ON WINGS/ DELIVER PRICELESS MELODIES... By lyrical expansiveness, we reach out in spirit to other creatures: CARRY ME ON YOUR WINGS TO HEAVEN/ WHERE HAPPINESS FLOWS EVER AND EVER...
Oh, birds, tell me your secrets Of happiness that I long for ever Or carry me on your wings to Heaven Where happiness flows ever and ever....... Verily, a lovely poem, Loved reading it......10

Of all living things, there's something about birds that never fail to move mankind, especially a poetic mind. The power of your liquid verse I think matches with the power of bird's liquid notes, as you said. A lovely poem.
