Mockingbird

Do you go where the mockingbird goes?

Do you sing how the mockingbird sings?

He sings a melody for you and me

Little did we know

Walking through the trees

That we a had a mockingbird marching chief

He hops from branch to branch

Conducting the branches

They sway on his command

Conducting the deer

They prance on his instruction

Conducting the winds

They whistle on his behalf

The bird puffs his snowy chest

His grey wings the color of storm

Those inquisitive eyes welcoming our arrival

The arrival to his haven, his home

The mockingbird kingdom

Mockingbird, oh mockingbird marching chief

Sing me a sweet melody

Let our love blossom

Like the music you have created beautifully

We write our names in stone

On an old oak where you perch

Mockingbird, oh mockingbird marching chief

Conduct the forest once more

Wowwwww I am seeing something special here ~~
Most of the love-themed poems I have read in this website are pessimistic and negative - How love can destroy you, and haunt you to your grave. But HERE you have established a playful and naive tone in the beginning with a 'mockingbird' conducting the animals with its music, the mindset of a child. And through this you have voiced out your hope and believe in the blossom of love, that love and hope are the things that make people happy. I absolutely adore the playful and positive tone. After all we should stay gleeful and hope in life right? However creating stanzas may be better, I think. (Just my opinion)

A very very very very very good poem. Thank you.

that's an interesting reference, though the book is mostly about a trial, we ought see symbolism, I must write a poem about this bird

I remembered when I saw the title ''Mockingbird'' and its true mostly is about a trial
