The Singing Mockingbird


A beautiful, varied song.
I heard today, this morning.
A hundred birds would I hear,
All singing very melodiously

Who could be making such (heavenly!) noise
I wondered as I opened the door
A light-gray bird was perched not far from me
It was no one but the sweet Mockingbird
