Reveille


Reveille

If starlight came wrapped in song
or soft winds rushed to murmur,
would it move my heart so much
as a tiny bird's reveille
outside my window?

    beautiful Jo! I love listening to our bird choir here in mid-Missouri.

    One nitpick...to me, a question mark at the end would complete your poem perfectly!

  2. I feel the same way, just this afternoon I sat in the garden listening to a blackbird sing a beautiful song right from the heart.

  3. Karen, thanks. I fixed it. I was debating it since it's rhetorical. I like it better with the question mark, too.
