Love Poem: Thinking I Was Happy

Thinking I Was Happy

I danced,
Made happy chatter
And
Like a bird on wing
Nestling her young
I sang a light hearted melody
Thinking I was happy...
Now I am as silent as the dark of night
My feet are molded in clay.
I close my windows to the chirping
Of foolish birds
Cold reality
Stole my heart's song!
