Crows Balad

who am I
do you wish to know
for I know and its simple
here it goes:

a rain cloud who wont rain
a sunny day that longs to be autum
the beach that dreams of mountains
the small fish who leaves the loving pack
the whale that doesn't song
the bee who wont buzz
the humingbird whos wings he can't move fast enough
the ant who never marches
the hawk who never soars
the monkey who never swings
the sage the wants more
the philosopher that wont think
the rattle snake that doesn't strike
the man who wont walk
the glacier that always melts
the sea that wont surge
the lightning that doesn't thunder
the hurricane that grows dizzy
the athlete who wont run
the scientist that doesn't question

all of these I am
and more
but mainly
I am
the crow who hates crows.

Beautifully written, and this ballad could be true for many of us. This is a very powerful poem.

In your poem are the answers to your questions you asked me about my poem "Where I Live."

Perhaps you are part eagle and paret dove. Just a thought.

Best wishes,

Don
