What kind of bird be thee that sits noisily in yonder tree daily, gaily mocking me? I look to see but am again blinded by your deceitful beauty. And when I say I love you, yet you mock me! Fly away please, I’ve heard your song too many times. It is no longer a sweet refrain, but the song of pain. |

This is a gem of poem. You've written this so well and the metaphor you used was so effective in conveying your message. Are you sure it wasn't a turkey? He sounds like one to me! hehe Linda |

Wonderful use of metaphor. Very nice and sadly .... a timeless message ... and they sent him home happy ... one hundred percent. |
