Bluebird

A poem...

Bluebird, don’t you cry

Fly, fly, fly

You were meant for so much more

Don’t let your tattered wings,

-keep you grounded, when all around us,

is another reason to soar.

 

Don’t count the fallen feathers.

-things will get better.

Ignore the stormy weather, the clouds,

-the fog from the banks creating a shroud.

 

If you sing, you’ll be heard

-so fly, my broken bird.

Nothing will get in your way.

Sing and the world will hear,

-everything you have to say.

 

 If you need a nest,

a place to rest

from the endless distress,

-you have a home.

No matter where you are,

no matter how far you fly

-you’re never alone.

 

Don’t count your feathers fallen,

-they come to me.

And with them I hear you callin’

-singing that you’re free.

 

Bluebird, don’t you cry

Fly, fly, fly

You were meant for so much more.

You’re singing in my heart.

You’ll be singing evermore.

This poem makes me wish that I have a bird as a pet..
But I don't like keeping them in cages because it really makes me bad...
It seems like I turned out to be a dictator in their life..

But anyway,
"when all around us,
is another reason to soar."
It's really true especially when you're deciding what to do with your life...

"Don’t count the fallen feathers.
-things will get better."
Keep going on...

"If you sing, you’ll be heard"
Speak up...

"You were meant for so much more."
That's what all people say and it's really true...

I love your piece by piece reviews of my work. Thank you for that. I love reading them ^^

[Meallea Pomorette]

I'm just fond of doing it like that... It's a hard work but it's worth it...

[MachinaWriter]

I'm glad you do, its really helpful and you have no idea how much I appreciate it ^^ I was actually hoping I could get you to take a look at a poem of mine called A Willow of a Man, that I've really been needing a solid look at lately. Once again, inspired by my muse, and a dream I had.

[Meallea Pomorette]

Sure...
(^_^)

[MachinaWriter]

Thank you ^^ I really do appreciate it. Again, it was inspired when my muse met a memory, which found its way into my dreams lol I can't wait to see what you think of it ^^

I would definitely agree with RachelReaper!!!

[RachelReaper]

the theme of this was very cool, to put it into a bird-like perspective. The rhymes flowed together and I enjoyed reading it a lot :)

An interesting concept, I enjoyed this. I always like birds since most have beautiful songs and soar with no cares in the world. Never having to worry about a thing.

[MachinaWriter]

Thank you, as always. I'm glad you enjoyed it ^^

On a positive note...you are so uplifting ..sounds like it should be a song. You have an amazing heart that seems to reach out to others so unselfishly.

Yeah, my soul wishes my voice could sing. They aren't talking to each other anymore, which is why my soul only talks through my writing now.
