Like for all of us there is a final Spring br For every bird a final song to sing br So enjoy your walks in Nature for as long as you can br For short in time the longest lifetime span br The bird who chirps upon the leafy tree br Is not aware of death like you and me br But he too has his borders to defend br And at breeding time his wife his only friend br Our lives in time far longer than the flowers br That bloom in Spring in the life giving showers br But it is a fact of life and facts don't lie br That like Nature's flowers we too are born to die br And for every bird there is a final song br Whoever said that did not have it wrong.
