With a friend by its side—
Together a lively pair;
Sweet chirps infused with light.
Bicker they did, yet I know
Angels come in winged forms.
Now may their journey be ever blessed
As Phoenixes reborn.

This is a reference to "A Bird in a Cage" (originally titled "Aspiration") which I co-wrote with a friend named Lee Chao back in 2013—and compared to which this poem is embarrassingly juvenile.
Dedicated to two precious baby birbs who left us much, much, much too early. I'm so sorry.
