And the snowflakes sang
Steady and full
Tugging on my heartstrings
Pushing as I pull
Up on the wires
Down on my head
Out from the window
Next to my bed
The morning has broken
The blackbird’s gone south
Though his song’s found a way
To come out of my mouth
Call me a mimic
Call me a mockingbird
I’ll sing for the day
I’ll savor the words
