I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings Poem by Jamal Brown

I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings

Rating: 3.0


I know why the


caged bird sings.


For the sign of


hope that tomorow


brings. I know why


the caged bird won't fly.


Because he rests on the soul of life


and if he


flies away he will surely die.


But tell me please, oh someone please,


please tell me because I just don't understand


why that one little caged bird cries.


Is he sad, is he lonely,


is he discombobulated?


That poor little caged bird is


lost on the road. Would


someone please show


him wich way to go.


I know why the caged bird sings.


For a sign of faith that tomorrow brings.
