Songbird (9/26/2019)
My brother found a songbird, that does not sing for me
Though I may stroke her feathers, I hear no melody
I strain my ear to catch a sound, but she is silent when I'm around
My brother found a songbird
My brother fell in love, and raised a family
He built a home to keep them, a bond for all to see
I strain my eyes to peer inside, for all my effort I am blind
My brother found a songbird
A silent pipers tune, heard only on the moon
A jesters dance, this game of chance
A shadow of a man
My brother sailed away, like a gale upon the sea
his wake divides the water, and blessed may he be
I strain my tongue to say farewell, but I'm beholden to this spell
My brother found a songbird
My brother is the songbird, he lives in harmony
And in my silence wonder, does he sometimes think of me
I strain my heart to feel a beat, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
May I be my brothers songbird, May I be my brothers songbird
My brother found a songbird
