Birdie Shie & Birdie Hee

by Lonely Rider   Dec 11, 2009


Silky Satin feathers , dash of copper hue
eyes fathom deep, reflecting sky so blue,
Fireflies encore, her bewitching chimes
Birdie Shie she is, singing playful rhymes,

Spring arrived, along with infectious glee,
Riding on the sunbeams, entered Birdie Hee,
Love at sight it was , but Shie didn't realize,
sleepless nights followed, and so did advise.

"Oh Shie, look at thee, and your drooping eyes,
In love you are dear, confess before he flies"
Perched on an Old Oak and staring at the void,
Birdie Hee was in love too, that day he confide.

Blossoms looked on, and startdust embraced
as they waltzed in passion with angelic grace
Hee didn't promise shiny stars, or eternal love
but each moment stood by her,Neath sky above

Test of time is ruthless, Shie soon found out
when a call came for Hee, at earliest he was sought
Shie held on to him, until his words soothed her,
"With morn rays ll be back, sing me a song dear"

Lonesome was day, and as shadow spread wings
echoed lonely melody, till today they say it rings,
Amber stirred Peach sunrise, but Hee didn't return
neither that day, nor many more days to come

Alone Shie would plead heaven, singing old love songs,
longing for one last glimpse, but destiny proved her wrong
and before she breathed her last, trickled a solitary tear,
Still in silent nights they say, her voice one can hear.

    what a sad haunting write. The beauty of a true love ends with the death of the one true love. Then you die from a broken heart :(
    Great job!

    Another sad poem that seems to be about a loved one that leaves and doesn't return. Well done.
