A lament
Shadow birds
Perch on lanterns
Migrating daily
From their home in the mountains
Their dispiriting cries
Pierce the glass
And make their homes
In people’s hearts
They spread out
Their gloomy wings
And summon misery
From hidden springs
Winged sorrows
Of times gone by
Return each night
To make people cry
Dawn & Dusk
