Morning Joys - a Quadrille Poem for dVerse

Image by Julius Silver from Pixabay

MORNING COMES

Morning comes I step out my door 
A bird is singing, my rooftop 
A mockingbird I sing to him 
"Who cooks for you" "Who cooks for you"
Then from my rooftop he returns 
Quiet a bit, replies another 

Repeat Repeated 
Neighborhood sings to me 

- - -

Clouds and shadows this morning here at my house

    I love the sound of birds singing outside in the morning. How lucky am I that I can hear that when I awake.

    I love the use of repetition in your quadrille, Jim, the best morning greeting comes from birds.

    The birdsong often builds like this... but here the birds are silent now getting ready to leave.

    Your poem is delightful.It's so much fun to sing with the birds, especially in the morning when they're so active.
