Lullaby by Charles J Hannan This bird sings by my window On a late Saturday evening 11:46 to be exact As I thumb up another poem In my little nook and cranny A full moon could explain Why we're both not asleep Or maybe we just had something to say For I keep typing And he is still singing A lullaby so all alone I get sleepier with each keystoke And wonder if it's my light that keeps him up What will he sing In the morning song If I've kept him up too late Early birds can't fetch the worms If sleepy eyed and hoarse I guess I'll turn the light off And try to get some sleep Another day is almost here again We are singing the same song 06/15/2003 Posted on 06/15/2003 Copyright © 2025 Charles J Hannan Member Comments on this Poem Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 06/15/03 at 01:28 PM This is my favorite of your recent postings Charles. Quite innovative having you and the bird interact with one another. Maybe a little tightening up at the end: What will he sing In the morning If I've kept him up too late No worms for that early bird. Note the deliberate absence of that last line...just a suggestion. Great work! Posted by Vimal Rony on 06/17/03 at 06:53 AM Very wonderful imagery,Charles.
