Fly Away, Fly Away

Fly away, fly away

The day is unfolding
The temperature’s cold
Not smouldering

Fly away, fly away

Come back
Amid spring flowers
For now is the time
Time to fly

Fly away, fly away.

A Hummingbird Came

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

A hummingbird came
To my window yesterday
She pleaded and begged
Me not to put away
That feeder which fills
Her each, everyday.

She needs calories
To fly away
On an epic journey
To warm, hot lands
Far far away.

Maybe tomorrow
She’ll leave
Before the snow flies
And the leaves
Are deceased.

So now, today
She pleads
Fill it up, leave it be
Help her get ready
For her long, long
Epic journey.

A Bluejay Came

 

 

 

A bluejay came
Looking for seeds today.

Then as I watched him fly away
I’m sure I heard, heard him say

“Do hurry and get them
Please don’t delay!”

I heard him
I’m sure I heard him say.

The Committee Has Spoken

The committee has spoken
The committee has risen
Giving a spokesperson
A chance to be heard.

Nominate one
To speak for them all
The committee has spoken
All is forgiven.

Bless them for being
Bless them for they have risen
And said the things
That kept us imprisoned.

There in our souls
Freeing us now
From that terrible prison.

Fly away, fly away
For the committee has risen
Speaking the truth
For all of us imprisoned.

The committee has spoken
The spokesperson be
A heartwarming person
Freeing us here
In our forever eternity.
