SongBird

Once upon a time deep from memory
is a wonderous song bird of exemplary
he sang a song of a magical place
one that I could almost touch and almost taste
This was place up in the sky
a castle on a hill that rose miles high
a castle made of emerald greens and sapphire blues
all of which were his favorite hues
fields of vibrant colored flowers casually strewn
song bird on the sill singing his sweet tune
trickled creeks of crystal clear
sweet summer essence in the air
sunsets of red and gold
with slightest of breeze the branches ebb and flow
an old wooden sign with a hearty, " WELCOME "
to him this applied to all, not just to some
met with a warm smile, and shining eyes of light green
and asked if I'd like a cuppa tea
stay for a moment, and visit with me
The castle high on this hill
a place in my heart I cherish still
Song bird, song bird sing me a song
I'll close my eyes and dream along.
