My Raven Came He Came a'Tapping

From my Raven Collection

My Raven Came He Came a'Tapping

My Raven came, he came a'tapping
on window pane
whilst I was napping

he came to me, to tell a truth 
that I should not remain recluse 

he told me there's a world outside
a life that's full and there's no strife

he told me I should rise from slumber 
so I did, and now I wander 

mind can see, mind can touch  
seek the sun, I love so much 

smell the roses red as cherries 
collect in basket all the berries

found a truffle in the ground 
touched the salt in ocean's mouth

next time I take a restless nap 
I'll surely wait for Raven's 
tap.

Starting with truth/recluse 

Every rhyme thereafter perfect 

And the ending!
