the call of the canary

Lying
upon my
Colorless canopy .
A canary
cleansed and carefree
it calmly cries
out it's plea .
“ Oh come
with me .
Open
your eyes
and see .
The world
we know
begins
to grow and glow.
The air so clean .
The grass
grinning
green .
The blue
bird sky
beckons me
to fly .
Just you
and I
leaving the
world of why .
No cares
no cries .
Getting lost
within your
eyes . “

Canaries...

seem so pure and clean, what with their yellow feathers and sweet song. If one is to lie looking at them against a sky of blue and a sun of gold, we could imagine flying away with them. Nice images! ~ Geez.
