Mimicry

2010-05-07

Float like a butterfly

fighting against the wind

Sail on until tomorrow

It looks like you'll never win

Rise low off the ground

like a bumblebee

Smooth sailing for

that unlikely flier

the wind matters not

Grab a thermal

like a raptor on the hunt

Soar for miles

Strike the unwary target

Hop and skip

like a robin

Not always early

but certainly persistent

Cry for your lost love

like a mourning dove

Or is it a mockingbird

Who painful mimics your thoughts

word for word
