My Lil Birdie... Poem by R.H. Peppers

Morning Rain!

have u seen my lil birdie?

amazing how she chose me..
would follow even chase me..
sit on my shoulder. fly. chirp and sing..
wake me each morning
with the soft flutter of her wings..

the moment i fell in love
i bought her a pretty gold cage..
but she no longer sang fa me..

hmmm...

how strange..

yesterday i open'd the cage door..
she flew away...

now i don't see her no more...


..dis be our Lovers' Lane
