Heather's Poetry, Part 1

No matter where we're at, Heather is always writing. She doesn't like to share it with us a lot, but sometimes, she'll give a brief glimpse of what she's written. Well, she's done some poetry and decided to share it with the fans. Each poem is incredibly personal and they're deep. This is not for the light hearted. She's going to share poems with us as we go along. Here's the first one, entitled "Birds."

BIRDS by Heather

parrots pigeons peacocks, one
ravens roadrunners robins, two

little birds I can name a few
big birds I can name more than you

turkeys toucans tangers, three
sparrows seagulls swans, four

you may find most in a zoo
you may find some in your stew

hummingbirds herons hawks, five
magpies mockingbirds meadowlarks, six

when they fly away after a screw
this bird’s heart remains blue
