THIS BIRD OF MINE


     I, like a injured bird
you a bird with a healing feather
and as you take me under your wing
never shall I feel unfettered

     You, like a caged bird
I, a bird with the key
as we soar the captivating skies
and I gaze into your eyes 
I feel uninhabited

     free to speak my mind
free to aspire
free to feel the warmth
free to desire

     Free to trust
free to feel
free to face the day
with fervent zeal

     Free to think
free to divulge
free to feel not guilty
when I indulge

     in your affection
free to caress
free to love
and not possess

     Like a sweet sun shower
you are a resplendent sign
yes, perspicacity divines good times ahead
with this bird of mind
