He sings in the trees,
With lively notes as light as his wings
To the other birds and the people he brings
Happiness and delight
His songs are as lively as his yellow hue
The goldfinch sings an upbeat tune
Notes as smooth as the feathers on his wings
And his crisp song as sweet as sugar on spoon
The yellow bird I know is never blue
Unlike the somber birds that flew.
