Did the birds come?


Did the birds come and sing to you tonight?
To tell you of my joy and such delight
Tapping their beaks on the window pane
Singing that I wanted to see you again

And that I need to kiss your lips again
Or as they said " a little peck,,,no pain"
I think you are lovely as are your hands
Let's walk tomorrow on sea shores sands

To watch the summer sun sink in the west
As we hold hands and do what we do best
Vanished now my fears you would not love me
Perhaps some other lads looks you did see

Why do I worry about whys and wherefore?
For looking at you face I know the score
Your eyes, your nose and how you flick your hair
To me your beauty is beyond compare

  4. This poem should be set to music, Robin! I especially enjoyed the first stanza, with the messenger birds tapping on the window, and the final stanza with its hint of Shakespeare.

  10. The first stanza reads like the beginning of a fairy tale. I agree with Kim, this would make an awesome song.

  14. The birds may yet come and sing, Robin. Oh, if they would sing again someday for us all.

  15. That would be wonderful, Robin. At first I was singing, "Twa la la, listen to the mocking bird's song." Renember that oldie?
