(Sonnet) In my working days world, Outside little birdies do swirl, With wings and songs saying, Wee birds in trees are playing, But my blue drab or grey suit, That chains me to my roots, With only windows to imagine A world so colourful, tangible, Is shroud, only wrap of clothes, Yet little birds, so downy robed, And within my comely, demise, See how brightly birdies do fly, As I shudder, muted, wintering, O how wee birdies can sing.

O How Wee Birdies Can Sing
(Sonnet) In my working days world, Outside little birdies do swirl, With wings and songs saying, Wee birds in trees are playing, But my blue drab or grey suit, That chains me to my roots, With only windows to imagine A world so colourful, tangible, Is shroud, only wrap of clothes, Yet little birds, so downy robed, And within my comely, demise, See how brightly birdies do fly, As I shudder, muted, wintering, O how wee birdies can sing.
