BIG BIRD SONG
It filled the air,
It filled my ears,
It brought me to tears.
It was so big it split the sky,
And I thought,
A song that big
Must come from some magnificent
Throbbing breast.
A sound that profound
Must come from some big bird,
A firebird with flaming plumage
And a ruby throat.
**********
I searched the clouds,
Following the sound,
And there, near the ground,
I found the singing siren,
A small brown bird
Hidden in the brush.
