The Daily Tot 5/29/22

Its been a while, so even though nobody is listening I will write a poem. ______________________

Above us it soars Free from all but the wind Not a responsibility or chore A shadow from below Yet, what do we know

Of this part of the skies

Flight roams our dreams Oh what wonder lies, How splendid it seems

The bird governs its realm

Of bobolinks and larks

Who flit between trees It's territory it marks

From sea to sea

This bird can go quite high

Beyond the reach of the human eye

To places we will never see

Where these sky dwellers fly free We may think we own the land Every speck of shining sand Every leaf on every tree Every stone and grassy lea

But these birds disagree For they rule the sky As killer whales rule the sea

It's a poem about hawks. Or it's supposed to be. I'm surprised how many things rhyme with tree.
