Songbird

Songbird

A Poem by HighSchoolAdventurer

I wanna be a songbird

I wanna greet the morning with a happy tune

I want to soar above the clouds that rest in the sky

I want to watch the sun rise and watch the rain fall

 

I wanna be a songbird

I want to fly away to a distant land

A far away place where i can be alone

A place isolated from the rest of the world

Have my sweet song fill the atmosphere

 

I wanna be a songbird

With colorful feathers that shine in the light

I want to sing to the sun as it slowly goes to rest

I want to hum to the moon as it mesmorizes us all

Race the stars as they sparkle like glitter

 

To fly across the sky to another place

To sing to the earth as she wakes

To hum ther a lullaby as she slips into slumber

Would be an awfully big adventure

But i wouldn't mind

I wanna be a songbird

Would be good to be a song bird. To sing and be free. Great description allowed the reader to fall into the excellent story.

I really love this. It was a good read for me. I want to be free, and just fly away for forever. That sounds like a mighty fine plan to me. :) Thanks for the read.

I like it, and the 'wanna' gives it a 'young' feeling, and I personaly think it sounds better than 'want to'

thanks that what i was going for as well
Two things. First "Wanna" isn't a word. At least a word that should be used in a piece of literature, unless of course you are using it as dialogue which is not the case here. Secondly, repeating "I" almost every other line gets tedious as a read. This might make a passable poem if you put some effort into it

Now this is be-a-u-ti-ful. I have often had the same thought. I would love to be a songbird. Your lovely descriptions do your subject justice. Very nicely written.
