A flock of birds
Tweeting the same song
Adding my verse
I now belong
Before, I waited
Til they landed beside me
To sing with them
Maybe in harmony?
Now I sing
With flocks everywhere
We key through the world
Alighting here and there.
Landing beside them
Those beckoning bards
Calling with their notes
Calling with their words.
Words turned to song
Tweets I now hear
From anywhere
Everywhere, right here.
One flock
One song
I now belong
Thank you.
