A Wounded Little Bird. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

A Wounded Little Bird.

Rating: 5.0


I saw on the pathway
a wounded little bird.

Took it carefully
kept it warm
inside my palms,
came home
fed it with milk.

It was lovely to see it
drinking slowly
the milk of love i gave.

Then kept it safely
in a small box
in the wool bed
and we both slept.

The next day
i repeated into its ears:
fly, fly, fly,
learn to fly again.

Weeks passed by.
Every day we both sang
the same song
fly, fly, fly, learn to fly again.



Today i saw it flying
from my room
to the wide world
of butterflies and birds.

Tremendous was my joy.
