robin singing before dawn

robin singing before dawn
your notes drifting like sparks
through sleeping stars

robin singing before dawn
over planets like dark embers
stirring under your night cries

robin singing before dawn
your notes falling like seeds
onto sheer canyon walls

robin singing before dawn
your notes piercing like bullets
through the arch of the sky

Vivid images, firebird. I especially liked that second stanza which seems so mysterious, like there's a story even just from that one.

I agree with mb. "Planets stirring like embers" is a magnetizing image
