Sonnet of the Birds The sweetest sound my heart has ever heard Is in the darkness of the early morn When dogwood limb is perch for springtime bird To warble out the joys that have been born New life, new light, new warmth upon the earth Has brought this friend from winter’s feeding ground Fulfilling nature’s deed of greatest worth Ensuring that his feathered wing abound All species gather in the bush and limb Before the breaking blueness of the dawn And twitter out the most enchanting hymn Before the sun has touched the green of lawn Wake up! Come listen to the chorus sing Its daily morning madrigal of spring Elizabeth Santos May 2,2002 |

*sigh*. . . this is my project for the next couple of years. . . to get this sonnet form down. . . studying your sonnets, I find that you make it look all too easy. . . thank you. . . ------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
