birdsong

i've been wondering...
do birds compose their music,
or is it all rote?
do they sing to one another,
or just for joy of it?
do they have a language of their own
with bird words?
and why do poets so often
write about birdsong,
especially the lark?
maybe its the way  their melodies
illuminate the dark.
