Birdsong

Pen me something happy. Not necessarily song lyrics, but it must be happy. Write about bliss, joy, hope... poems about nature are good too. Not the place for dark writes! So write a celebration and make me smile.

Rules:
1. Nothing inappropriate for a 13-year-old. That means no swearing, erotica, or anything of the sort.
2. Proper grammar and spelling!
3. Please, do not enter your dark writes here!
4. Up to 3 entries per person, but only 2 of them can be prewrites.

Will be open for a long time! So don't reserve, but finish your poem and then enter it.

So write me a beautiful poem, and brighten up the world a little more with your words.
