If Only.
No tonic compares to dawn's rewarding
blackbird-sweet melodies spilling abroad.
Silence drips with explosion as notes bare
feathered soul-shards that pierce crystal air.
If only my pen could capture
each droplet of sound
as alchemy bottled in rapture
soaks bird's boundary
with heard joy, if my passion
roused by joining loud
whistling to a poetic canvas
could chorus its proud
aria my awe would take action.
Of all nature's trill- symphonies this bird's
throaty repertoire hastens me to rise early.
So with tuneful soliloquies stirring my sleep
I gratefully rouse and intend to drink deeply.

Wonderful sound the blackbird makes it is there when I awake in the morning singing in harmony with the robin.
"If Only....?" the most compelling question we all have - "If only ?"
Indeed you pen has captured that sense of being moved by birdsong. One of my favourite sounds
If only I wrote such good writes too! Am I flattering now? And will flattery get me everywhere?! lol.
gods orchestra for our pleasure and for free
There is no way we could beat the harmony of nature, even the best composer would feel disabled.
