What a Wonderful World

There's a darker side to everything..

Songs of Blue Birds, let me sing ‘em; happy in

a way I’ve never known before. You never showed this to me! The letter of

my father, long since gone and dead. Dusty with the wind. But as my iced

tea grows warm I’ll sing to you a song of lullaby’s

and smiles. Prepare my robe and

table of knick-knacks; paddy-whack, give a dog my bones. Once

upon a time

in a land of paper napkins and blown-out tires, a sign of deaths to come lit up

your eyes. Parents gracefully wept while dancing in cars made of silk. Seems

like a life ago now, how small your hands were on my cheeks. The wind

will softly blow outside this window, swaying

the trees as I will fall on my old, tired knees. Get up no more, it’s time to lay

down now; time to go to sleep. Time to sing

songs of patience and

feverish love;

of Blue

Birds...

Everything is perfect. The capitalization is a inconsistent. I didn't grasp your intentions. It was a little distracting. You're clearly in your own league here on this site. Props!
