Hark! The wondrous springtime sounds
Of birds returned from Southern rounds!
Hear finches with the sweetest song
That carries all our hearts along,
With whistling tunes and bright refrain,
That with their joy our hearts sustain.
Now songbirds have such lovely voice,
Which gives us reason to rejoice.
Yet I am jealous of these birds
That make the sweetest sound you've heard,
For even when I simply talk,
My voice is just a horrid squawk!

You sing very nice. Especially with a tennis racket, Oops I mean guitar.
