Dear Mini

Dear Mini,

A tiny bird flew to me today, It reminded me of how you were so far away.

With it’s claws and it’s tail bright red, This bird reminded me of your peaceful face instead.

It’s melodious and soulful song, reminded me of how I haven’t seen you in so very long.

Away as I am, surrounded by nothing but the blue sea; everytime I look at my companion, you I want to see.

And on a summer’s afternoon, this tiny bird to me does bring, your country’s homely, warm spring.

And as this bird with a tiny leap, begins to fly out of reach, I remember my lonely walk, away from you towards the beach.

Talking to the breeze, flew away my tiny bird, reminding me of the many things, that were unsaid but heard.

I watched my little bird fly away, just like you did yours years ago that day.

This bird, slowly flies out of sight and in reminisce I sigh; I never got to say good bye.

the lights of your city grew into a round twinkling band that night, just when this bird grew tinnier against the sun’s light.

And with no one to accompany me, on this solo voyage of mine, that bird reminded me of you, my no moon night’s moonshine.

And as I sail away now, away from this unknown bay, Dear Mini, I miss you today, I miss you today.
