. How strange This late at night A bird should sing It is indeed A beautiful tune Even though Because of clouds Without the aid Of stars As if to say I know My time has come The life that’s left Rendered down To what remains Filtered through Final hours— So please Remember me When I was young Pleasing God With outstretched wings Even now Before I’m gone Some are moved . |

John, This is very good. I still remember my wings, as I'm sure many of us do. Bobby |

I always wondered how the birds know it's morning before the sun comes up? HMMMM? Nice write Tracey. |
