Little Bird



Far behind the flight of birds that float,
I see you little bird up in the sky,
Fluttering and flapping your teeny wings so hard, so fast
To keep in pace with your gritty family,
To reach home before the sun sinks,
To rise early, before the sun rise..

Not complaining of their inattention to you,
Not afraid of losing your way in the vast blue sky,
Not scared of the eerie heights and the big clouds that come your way,
Dreaming of becoming a big bird soon......
,
You fly, fly ,fly little bird……
Ah how I wish I had your valor!,
this battle was never so harder……
