A MODIFIED Rhyming Wave poem for Potlatch Poetry

The Songs of Wrens

by damommy

 
The wrens ring out with lovely song,
with lovely, lovely, lovely song,
and I could listen all day long
and I could hear their croons.
 
The songs of wrens are lilting sweet,
are lilting, lilting, lilting sweet.
and ease a sorrow for a while,
and ease a broken heart.
 
The wrens ring  out with lovely song,
and ease a broken heart.
