Two birds
Perched on a wire
So far
Yet so close
Both traveling
Both Unraveling
The journey for them both
They chattered back and forth
Became closer than they thought
Both ruffled each others feathers
But both loved a lot
They knew to forgive
They balanced each other out
One had never experienced love before
One learned to work it out
Love took them far
New life came
And with all the rush of the world
Both still looked at each other the same
Love cannot be defined
Predicted
Or Restricted
It can only be beautiful
In every relationship it sits in
How could this be wrong?
For love has carried us gently
Like a sweet summer song
Sure the winds have turned
But learning is one thing we have learned
Two Birds
On a wire
So far
Yet so close

This is about my parents. Their love for each other inspired me to write this poem. Happy Valentines Day!
