BIRDS BEYOND WORDS

BIRDS BEYOND WORDS

(Ottava Rima Stanzas)

I am one with birds to fly in freedom,

I love to sing notes, swinging in my nest,

Enjoying lovely sights from my kingdom,

My empire, my paradise, I feel blest,

Sure to rule not to miss bliss at random,

My choice is to jaunt amid green sheen best,

All feel envy while looking at me smile,

As I am a bird, my life, in bird-style.

I shine in the hues of unfaded glow,

I compete with those of pretty flowers,

To the core, I taste all the fruits mellow,

My senses fain swim in brimming showers,

For onlookers, the most wonderful show,

Who can ascend to reach my joy-towers?

All are busy in their petty circles,

Not in quest of their breaking manacles.
