Helpful Inspiration for Animal Poems

I thought it might be fun to post music, as we mention a lot of musical elements in poetry during class. Here are some lyrics for you. I also posted the link to youtube if you want to hear it. I am still struggling with my animal poem, and when this song shuffled it helped me think a little. Something about music was a bit more helpful than reading others' poemtry. I hope it helps all of you. Even better, hopefully you won't need it.

Birds of the High Artic
by David Gray

Baby say it isn’t true
You were never there
It wasn’t you
It’s more than I can do
To try and keep it shiny new
The gap just opens up
Between the words we like to use
And the thing that’s seen
Seen through your eyes now darling
In blue distances calling
Like the birds of the high arcticAnd you don’t have to make the move
No there ain’t nothing left to prove
Accept the plain unvarnished truth
It’s a part of you you can’t remove
Like a love that’s been
There ain’t no answers darling
Just blue distances calling
Like the birds of the high arctic
They’re calling
Like the birds of the high arctic
This darling
For the light in your eyes sparked it
Two sheets to the wind
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Like the birds of the high arctic
Like the birds of the high arctic
Like the birds of the high arctic
Like the birds of the high arctic
Baby say that it isn’t true
You were never there and it wasn’t you
Never there wasn’t you
Baby say that it isn’t true
You were never there
Never there wasn’t you
Like the birds of the high arctic
Like the birds of the high arctic
Like the birds of the high arctic
