Birds of a Feather

“I touch your hands


And my heart goes strong,


Like a pair of birds


That burst with song.”


 


Rodgers & Hammerstein,


Younger Than Springtime


 


 


We may be getter a bit older now


But in springtime it never feels that way


I love watching our world come alive once again


With you by my side on these glorious spring days


 


The birds are all returning now


To our tiny backyard Paradise


And the sight of fresh new green blossoms


Is truly reflected in your lovely spring eyes


 


The spring air is so very crisp and clean


And I marvel as I sit here with you and stare


Everything around us is now scented with lilac


Its essence caresses your lovely wind swept hair


 


And like each and every spring since we met


You’ve somehow managed to renew my world


And very contentedly I now perch here with you


Watching all of this magnificent new life unfurl


 


You and I have truly bonded gloriously


Like two devoted aging birds of a feather


And I hope and pray that we can perch here together


Through many more years of this lovely spring weather


 


 


“Younger than springtime, are you
Softer than starlight are you


Gayer than laughter are you
Sweeter than music are you
Angel and lover


Heaven and earth
Are you to me”

Wonderful thing yesterday morning, Ed, to wake up and hear so many birds outside, then later to feel the warmth of the sun on my face. I too am ready for spring. Great write.
