Choirmaster of The Drones

With your low humming voice – sweet
and mellow – persistent and clear –
you would make a dreadfully great
choirmaster!
…and choreographer too!!

Dancing in widening circles – projecting
your voice higher with every turn – odiously
you invite two more yous – and they join –
humming harmoniously to your wordless song!

The good thing is that no matter how loudly
you sing – with voice so strident and deafening –
I remain undisturbed by your tiny presence –
(except the noise made by the flap of your wings)

…we could even use you in Sing Afrika!
