Two lovebirds found their way

Singing in love 

Overtaking the wind 

Building their home

Every spring they bring life

Leaving pieces of themselves 

In different parts of the world 

The sun watches them 

Marveling at their dedication 

Only leaving 

When the moon embraces their dreams

During the winter they travel 

Finding hope in the beauty 

Of new flowers and scenes 

The pair are never apart 

For without the other 

They would perish 

A true testament of love and faithfulness 

On a cold night between worlds 

Sickness followed them

Claiming the song of one

As her mate tried singing for two

Darkness without mercy

Greedily swept through the night

Leaving only silence 

The sun tried to reawaken the pair 

To hear them sing again 

But as the night took claim  

Her lovebird sang his last song 

Following his heart into the next world 

Once again proving that true love exists 

And will follow its other half anywhere
