Will you give me some <br />Small comfort <br />A tender ear to rest my <br />Aching complaint <br />A warm corner to nestle and curl <br />Away from the day <br />And its unwanted glare <br />An embrace free of passion <br />But welcoming and true <br />I am tired now <br />And like Darwin's finch <br />I have adapted to the loneliness <br />Though, I would fly away <br />If the winds will take me.<br /><br />Guillermo Veloso<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/finch/
