A Little Bird

This is my favorite piece.

I came across a bird the other day.

He was perched upon a branch.

How I wish I could be like that little bird.

Free. Not chained to this Earth

by worry and responsibility.

Without a care in the world, 

I could fly.

If only I were like the little bird.

Eagles and owls? They hunt little birds, and sometimes eat them in the air whilst flying back to a nest!! lol Did you write this one in your tree? ....birds have worms. : ) But this is a pretty poem, so I don't mean to sound so critical of the written word without understand what it is that is implied of course. I like it. xoxo -Mark

Yes that would certainly be nice... then again life might get a little boring.

Wonderful metaphor, guess we all would love it ! Your poem has something from haikus, specially when talking about nature and something from our occidental poetry when expressing thoughts and wishes, great job =D

[Bruce Chandler]

Well done keep it up!

Ever since there have been birds and mankind, we've wanted to fly. I've dreamt of it, too.
