Not Alone

Baby bird looks out from her lofty nest

Wonders what she will do next

Her other siblings have all flown

But she is just scared and alone

She feels a gentle nudge above

A mother’s beak, her father’s call

She hears her siblings singing loud

Soaring upwards towards the clouds

She feels the sun, she feels her wings

Begin to open, stretch, and then

She knows that she is not alone

The love, the leading cheers her on.

Stepping out, she feels the air

Beneath her wings, she rises there.
