Mockingbird

Mockingbird, mockingbird sing your sweet song.
Mockingbird, mockingbird, I'll sing along.
You choose the music, you choose the theme.
I'll go along and together we'll dream,
of wonderful, happy and long summer days
with wind through the leaves and a soft, gentle haze.

I can see I am going to enjoy reading your work. It's exactly what I like. I always liked the poems chosen for the fourth grade reading anthologies in the reading series. that is where I first read "Dreams" by Langston Hughes. See my "Eden". We could get to be friends.

A mockingbird's song parlayed into a positive spin on existence in general ha ha. I certainly wouldn't argue with it : )

Nice piece. It has echoes of the title's many calls in nature.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
