the bird and her fiddle
listen carefully there is a bird
warbling from the moon
how she got there is anyone’s guess
is she yellow or is she red or blue
plump or thin or somewhere in between
can you tell by listening carefully
to the tenor of her fiddle
there is a feel to her presence
sublime and pleasantly inviting
when will the world stop spinning
and listen carefully to her message
