oops! got burnt
wings broken
feet crooked
beak chipped
little bird stayed in the nest
slept all days and all nights
couldnt't recover
other birds flew over
sent their love
brought her food
helped her, nursed her
little bird's wings began to grow
her feet straightened
she could chirp
but she never thought she could fly again
One day she saw a baby bird learning to fly
her urge of flying
her need to fly
she flapped her wings
and there she was, up
in the air – FLYING!
since that day
she flew and flew
over mountains, over valleys, over oceans
she only stopped when she died of old age
her courage, her persistence, her passions
are retold in the chirping
we hear every day
