WHERE DO WILD BIRDS DIE
Their forms outlined against the sky,
I wonder where they go to die.
Their song it trills with sweet refrain,
Melodic sounds above the rain.
Their graceful moves are wondrous too,
The plumage Red, Gold, Green and Blue.
I search the land for those who fell,
Their feathered friends will never tell.
Feathers seen upon the ground,
Their little bodies never found.
In fact, I think they simply fly,
Far away from you and I.
That is where they go to rest,
Secure and safe, in heaven’s breast.

Bless Me Father for I Have Sinned
So, here’s me sitting on the 7b bus heading into town. I shouldn’t be on the bus. I don’t want to be on the bus. I should be on a bike, legs pumping like pistons. The freedom of the open road. Direction where the tyres press, as the poet said.
