My Heart Today Is Very Sad And Grey

My Heart Today Is Very Sad and Grey

my heart today
is very sad and grey
to Erna's birthday
I cannot go anyway
enough planes to fly with
but there's still the delta and the covid
in the country where she resides

my heart today
is very sad and grey
I cannot go anyway
to Erna's Birthday

the nightingale says
climb on my back
I am small but I am strong
nothing can go wrong

Did I think why not?
Tonight I have to do a lot,
but first to Erna's Birthday
it happened as I say

the rain said to me: hurry up
I'll wait till you have flown away
then I'll continue
with my long working day

A very lovely poem so well crafted and expressed. The recurring lines in the opening and second stanzas give emphasis to your sadness in your inabilty to attend the birthday of a great friend.

All stars smiled for a while to make you happy with the situation and you should not feel so sad any more. Time will bring new opportunity for meeting Erna. A nice birthday poem you have written. An excellent sharing is done. With long working day you have written a nice poem.
