Happy bird singing. Photo by Angela Lansbury of her own drawing, by pen name 'Angella'. Copyright.
But it's not singing to itself
It's boasting to a pretty bird
I've got great wealth. I''m in good health
Join me in this perfect garden
Apples and food for a lifetime
Plenty to share without a care
But caution, darling, is no crime
Last week I spied a prowling cat
At once I flew high in the sky
If you hear my warning warble
Fly straight off - don't stop to ask why
Even the prettiest garden
On some days attracts a black cat
But today the sun is shining
So let's say no more about that
***
When I hear a bird singing
This sign reminds me what to do
To spread a little happiness
And share my newest tune with you.
