Bird of Paradise


He longed far too long

Sat below too many a May moon

Prayed in whispers to the night dwelling 

Hoped beyond the doubtful reality

That all would somehow aright

The bird from paradise will come

With shadow it shall intersect

Upon the sidewalk void of shadow

Another will pass and lament

His years of tears at the very same moment.
