bird

hush now bird
you cannot fly
sparrow save your only flight
winter’s here and you are cold
no other bird would be so bold
no other bird would be so bold

fly
rising
die
trying

save
save your only flight
winter
feel winter’s icy bite
no other bird would be so bold
everything that rises must converge

please
don’t cry into the wind
eyes
eyes bright begin to sting
soft wings brush the cloud up above
soaring high welcome rays of sun

fly
fly
