Little Bird

 

Little Bird

A little bird sat at my window,

And as his song for me reached a crescendo,

My worries melted away,

Like snow on a sunny winter’s day,

Into the birdfeeder, he bobbed his little head,

Eating his fill of mealworms until he was sufficiently fed,

My thoughts drifted away to a peaceful place,

I lost track of all present time and space,

My spirit was free like a kite drifting in the wind,

As the bird flew away from the perch, I grinned,

What a wonderful delight he had brought to my day,

It was nice to be a part of his short term stay,

Oh, but I’m sure he’ll be back again soon,

He always revisits me in the afternoon,

I wonder, does he know I am watching him intently?

Maybe he is watching me too, as I move gently,

Does he know I am providing him with his free meal?

Does he even know how happy he makes me feel?

Little bird, when you are out of my sight,

I hope you have a very good flight!
