No More Flying South : Animal Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

I woke up this morning and sat down by the internet ,

I opened up the windows and in came a breeze that swept

me away into the streams of semi-subconscious land .

 

I took my eyes up above where a lark clung to the sky,

with wings over the world below I wished that I could fly .

If I where a bird maybe somehow I could understand  .

 

Something's not right  round here birds are chirping after midnight  .

When wintertime is on its way and that once a year flight ,

should be on , well its not its gone , why are the birds still here .

 

 

 

Birds are not flying south anymore ,they are staying put ,

something is definitely wrong they are not leaving the coup .

Is there something going on that maybe we all should fear  ?
