This was a good poem. I understand how the anniversary of loss can strike. Yet I am glad to see though the stone birds may not fly, neither do they chain you down.
Thanks for sharing.

Your author notes are superb-you have a good flow with your poem and write a compelling story within your poem-I am sorry about your accident but you have found another way of enjoying life by writing poetry--I love where you write(The pain and suffering so long ago-Lives within me, conquered by love) a well penned write-great job.

    Good Morning Linda, Thanks so much for reading; stone birds represent mourning, depression, death. Not nice fictional birds - they are gone today. Bless you, Kay.

This work has reached the exceptional level

No pity, my dear friend :-)
Strong use of rhyming couplets and I absolutely LOVE the image of stone birds.
Good alliteration in Losing a leg is likened to losing a child
Anger and frustration abounds - abound
and then change the next line to make no sound.
I love the upbeat turn where you declare you are alive with words.
This is excellent, Kay. :-) B rooke
