The mockingbird sings
every morning
and afternoon
and evening
The light pole where he sits
the pinnacle of our street
and the closest point
to heaven or at least
the clouds
the upper atmosphere
Melodramatic?
Sure
Repetitive?
Yep
But his skills
are first chair
every instriment
a winged symphony
of April surrender
inspired by Blackbird Etude by A.E. Stallings
