Elusive is Your Beauty

Raggiana Bird-of-Paradise / Michael Sammut

 Beautiful bird of paradise
sing to me of all your wonders
teach me the poems of nature
fly me to places of the heart

your golden crest bright as the sun
on colorful wings you ascend
elusive to the human world
fly me to places of the heart

deep in the rain-forest of dreams
leaving my collection of tears
a joyous song of love evolves
fly me to places of the heart

  4. Your poem reads like a prayer to the bird of paradise, Truedessa. It is indeed ‘elusive to the human world’ – I would love to see one! I love the phrase deep in the rain-forest of dreams’.
