Frogmouth

 Be at peace 

Sweet little thing 

Of morning song 

Of gentle wing 


Be at peace 

Far from your nest

Mangled and torn

In your Sunday best 


Feed the earth 

That drinks these tears 

Let go of your life 

Your hopes and fear


A prayer to the abyss 

From the glowing blue

Though it isn't kind 

It is true 


From without this grave 

to within this tomb 

New life will rise  

New life will bloom 


Sweet little soul

With love so rife

I thank you for 

your precious life
