Out of the Nest

Audio Recordings, Family, Travel / March 26, 2024 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

(for Carolyn going away to college)

You have the soul of a bird
it's so joyful, light and fair
and now it's flying to a world
that the frightened people share

And I pray you safe
when they see you there
drawing water from mirages
for the flowers
round your castles in the air

Carolyn is the caterwaller refered to in yesterday’s poem “A Hymn to Them That Write and Sing Em”
