My Sister is My Songbird Blue Her symphony My Heart long knew Her voice the sole melody I ' ll turn to-- Turn to Her for Whom my Heart ' s cinders blaze To Jessica, To She Who with unrivaled ease Sets me at ease- soothes as does the Ocean ' s breeze
My Sister is my Songbird Blue My Singing Morning Lark, My Sword-Swinging Arya Stark Without her I ' d only know the dreadful dark Darkness sans Her whom never I ' d eschew I shouldn ' t, I wouldn ' t, and I simply couldn ' t With Her subtraction- I ' d be less than a fraction Far Less than a nothingness would I then be Without You- O ' My dearly Songbird Blue
My Sister, My Songbird Blue Peter Pietri( N. P. B)
I ' d be a barren Earth- devoid of mirth
For your absence would mean My Heaven
Would be Hell in Seven--Seven miles below
A dread blacker than the shadow of a crow
O ' Love Eternal Your absence is a Hell infernal
My Songbird Blue, My Nest ' s Cuckoo You Who are My Kookaburra too
You whose lullaby I find as comforting
As babes their Mother ' s voices do Seems to Me the Milky Way t ' was made For My ears to hear Your serene serenade That Melody sung to Me from You,
O ' Songbird Blue You for whom I shimmer-shine My
Sapphire hue You- My heart-soul sugar- My Beloved Morning Dew My far-favored Honey, My Honeydew
Melon You for Whom I ' d set-sail and be
Magellan And search each-every Sea- Skies too

Unceasingly seeking You- My Treasured Songbird Blue
