It’s the distance I feel
Is it even real?
The love we’re supposed to enjoy?
It’s not like the movie reel
The lovers don’t really feel
There’s no knight in shining armour
No “Ladyhawke” ending
Where love’s never ending
Turns out it’s just a dog and a bird.
Odd couple you think
Thought they were on the brink
Of happiness everlasting
But the truth of it all
The world isn’t small
And the distance couldn’t be conquered.

Animals have a real ability to share their devotion. Whether that is human “love”, depends on the yardstick used to measure. Whatever it is? It is often preferable to that human love. I never cared to keep birds in a cage. however, my ex. did. Which meant I did also. Parakeets. They would sing their little hearts out from that cage. Now a dog and a bird? Hmmm, that might work? I do not care to entertain the thought. I am lucky to have a lot of love in my life. And in the end, the love you take is equal to love you make. ~ P. McCartney. I believe that. Cheers Jamie

I agree. Ladyhawke is one of my favorite movies. But it’s just a fairytale, isn’t it?

I have not seen this film. Yet, if it shows up in netflix? I will be sure to remedy that. Cheers Jamie
