in great pageantry they arrive,
a chorus line across the sky,

a call to both ear and eye
upon their returning flight,

diversion from the winter mood,
their siren song plays
amid the still tentative skies,

they come on a prayer
even weeks before,
the new leaves
pink the trees with spring,

they vie for voice
in a turbulent time,
and to my heart
they override,
the sounds of missiles,
tanks, and hate,

they arrive,
in tune,
concurrent with this time,

they come,
in majestic flight
on blind faith,

and they remind,

this vision of peace
upon an uncertain sky

bklynboy, this is a very strong write,
but yet a peaceful write, too. I liked
the way you wrote of this subject.
