Black Bird

 Black Bird

My dad and I would sing
By By Blackbird By By
At any time of day .
These days I get up when it is still dark .
A rich and joyful sound burst
Into the late darkness .
It is the blackbirds perched
On the roof of my neighbors house .
The beautiful song brightens the darkness ,
With the joy and exuberance
In the anticipating of dawn .
Hear the birds singing
Before the sunrise
Causes me to think
Of my dad singing .
His faith was the confidence
In what he hopes for
And the assurance 
About what he will not see each new day .
I got my dad's faith .
I will sing By By Blackbird  By By  .
