Birds of a Feather

By R. K. Clark

Extra, extra! Read all about it! More poems, lyrics, and such. Another novel approach from the unknown author, R. K. Clark.

This is more or less what I wrote in my first book. I hope you find something that you can relate to from your own experiences and obtain something knowledgeable from these pages. So read all about it and get educated from a fellow Homo sapiens. In addition, in the words of Tiny Tim, “God bless us all, everyone.”

About the Author

Preface

Once again, here are more poems, songs, lyrics, and some tidbits of history—a diary of days past, present, and something about our future.

Once again, I hope that you find something meaningful and inspiring within these pages. Another book, another day, and hopefully, another dollar. I’m trying my best to reach out to one and all from my part of the world, which happens to be Schenectady, New York, at the present time. There is a lot of history here in

Upstate New York, going back more than four hundred years. I have had more of an interest in learning things since I’ve been out of school. I can’t afford a college education. So I do the same as everyone else, and that is to read newspapers, books, and magazines; watch the news on the TV and the computer; and go on an occasional visit to the library. Well, if you happen to take a peek inside Birds of a Feather, I hope that you can find something educational and inspiring within these pages, flipping each one like the wings of a bird taking off in flight. God bless and onward we go. Always your loyal friend.

Acknowledgement

I just want to thank my family and friends who lead me on with my music, song lyrics, and poetry writing. Also, I want to thank my fiancée, Brenda Garofalo, for her artistic sketches.

Birds of a Feather

                           My feathered friends,

                           oh, what joy the morning brings.

                           Birds of a feather flock together,

                           so they say.

                           Eagle in the sky,

                           flying around and around.

                           Little sparrows bathing

                           on the ground.

                           Birds of a feather flock together,

                           come what may.
