My Song Bird Died

by Jennifer RIP Lesthat Hayden   Apr 29, 2008


When I read this I read it to the beat of the song With a Little Help From My Friends. You can jazz it up any way you want to though.

Pretty little song bird sing me a song.
I'll snap to help you keep the beat.
Tell me the words so I may sing along.
All I want is to hear is you tweet.

Tell me all in the world is right.
No problems or worries to cloud my days.
Oh, tell me my future is bright.
It doesn't matter what anyone says.

Knowing right from wrong is no problem with you
ever since you took me under your wing.
It is as crystal clear as the day you flew.
Now whenever I'm down I simply sing.

Oh, little song bird why'd you have to leave?
Things were so great from before.
Now how I see the world I can't believe.
Hardly get by anymore.

I know this isn't how you'd want me to be.
You'd want me to go forward on my own,
but you were my eyes and now I cannot see.
I don't want to walk this path all alone.

The words you spoke I'll sing them to you
and hope my happy songs you will hear.
Know your songs sung to me will stay true.
Even in your death my skies are clear.

    Quite nice. The rhymes go well with the the theme of your poem, and very little to none seemed forced. I like your closing stanza. Overall I would say you did a very nice job with this. Excellent.
