Fly little bird,
this world is yours!
Spread your shy wings and you'll see they weren't shy at all!
Magnificent and strong,
that's what you've become.
Fly little bird,
visit the great skies, the tiny towns,
savour a tasty fly, maybe a fat worm!
Twirl away in branches and twigs,
carry a flower to your beloved too!
Fly high little bird, fast and strong,
see the colours of all the world,
pinks and greens, maybe orange too!
Who knows what tomorrow holds?
You could lose your feathers,
or be fried in butter and red sauce too!
Don't wait for the sun to rise,
fly little bird,
this world is yours!
I'm going to publish a book of them as soon as I can make time to keep working on book projects at CreateSpace. Most exciting thing I'll be doing today is going to online school, and squeezing in crafted items and artwork production, along with the management of my online creative venues, lol. That's quite exciting! I try to walk early each morning :) Always hope to see birds.
I would love to read your collection of bird poems, Sj Holland, and thank you for reading mine, hope you have a great day, maybe you should do something exciting today and share it with me!
Well, first of all, I love birds, so I had to read this. I need to sit down and count the number of bird poems I have :) Once I started reading, and got past the 3rd line, and then the 8th, I was carried to the end by the delightful conversation you made with the bird. Wonderful wise message about living life to the fullest too.

Wow! That does sound quite exciting, book projects you say? What sort? I have been trying to put my mind to writing a novel, but I just can't seem to do it. Artwork productions are so fun aren't they? You're quite a busy woman I suppose! Hehe, maybe you should just take a camera with you next time you go for an early morning walk, do a little bird watching and capture them in the pictures.
