I saw an oriole today
and then he flew away.
He sat in a tree,
he sang to me,
and then he flew away.
So much of life,
it seems to me,
happens just that way.
Friends come for a time,
they laugh and play,
and then they fly away.

they are like that
they sit like birds
on summer branches
then the dead winter
finds them no more

like the swallows
some return
and then it was like they never left
even if they leave again
