The Nightingale's Lilly Comments

Humming Hymns Beautiful and pure delight Caught another birdies sight As he gazed upon the lily And the Nightingale unity. Just a bird whom Nature wronged Humming-bird without a song Since I flap my wings so fast- My life-span is not quite long. Feeling wronged and underrated The new love scene, he soon evaded Sucking nectar from the roses, As he orbits round the Orchids. Fluttering amidst perfume Under Hawks that plot his doom Humming-Bird begins to hum Of his world that wore him numb Wingless flights and windless skies For Angelic creatures eyes For my wings they flap too fast So my life it doesn't last. That's the song I'll shortly sing Even under vulture's wing Since my life is nice and short I shall live it like a King. And the humming-bird did live Til his wings their flapping seized Life's too short to hide our words. We can learn from humming-birds. P.X 12.18.2013 To Anhelica
