To see a bird but not its leafy perch

 

 

The skin without was clearly lit

They saw yet, the surface remained clouded

To see a bird but not its leafy perch

How does that work I wonder?

Sometimes the forests seen

But not the trees within

Sometimes the pictures clear

And yet the details lost

Today

I am

The

Tree

And lost in foggy climes

They hear my song yet see

me not.
