The song never heard

How sorrowful, the bird
that sings but is not heard;
though nature gave it voice
to spread the air with joys
and wrote that gentle tune,
all summer long, it croons;
a tune of such bright cheer.
It sings, but no one hears.

Great poem JoHn, people are so busy, that they often miss the bird song. Jenny.

Thank you,

Thank you, Jenny. Unfortunately, my wireless router broke down and so I was unable to go online and post anything on ABCtales for almost a week which was sort of the inspiration for the poem. Glad you enjoyed it, Jenny and I agree; a world without birdsong would be a far gloomier place and yet its one of life's charms that people take for granted.

Oh look, a link. I wonder where it leads.
