Lonely February Bird - InkSpot.Com
About This Author
Writing poetry allows me to exercise my imagination and share it with others. I strive to write for the benefit of the reader using carnival fun mirror images of my life's experiences.

Alone in the darkness, February's realm, Witness the starkness of a pre-morning freeze, A bird sleeps in silence, dreaming of springtime, Asleep in defiance of a wintery world. A lazy sun rises to crest the horizon, Winter disguises the fruit of the earth, An elderly woman sows seeds from a bucket, To fulfill the needs of a suffering bird. A lonely bird feasts then others join in, The sun in the east brightens the sky, Sing praises to Heaven for the love of a woman, Sing praises to Heaven for the least one among us. 12 Lines
