BIRDSONG
The Bird roams the wild grass. His flight is on halt,
Inside the ribcage he protects his heart.
Open, rip the fabric covering your wings
And let them spread into the vastness,
The stars are waiting and the clouds have drifted away
So you can, in forgiveness and in peace,
In speech and in song
Find your place in the world.

Hello Bernadette...
I knew it...
Beautiful write!
This also reminds me of Dolly Parton's Song...
Very beautiful song...
In the lyrics she sings she's a sparrow when she's broken but, she's an Eagle when she flies...
My mind went there when you spoke of the wings ...
I don't know if it's because of the size of a sparrow people have it in the mind they're fragile, broken, and weak...
How small and weak was David when he took out that Giant Goliath with just a sling shot and a stone?
Even an Eagle can have trials and tribulations too right?
Maybe, it is just the sparrow?
Thank you for sharing...

Your words flow gracefully and say beautiful things. Birds are beautiful too...healing...I watch and feed them everyday and who doesn't yearn to fly.
An uplifting write my friend x
Well I got goosebumps by the end, another beautifully created poem, loved the imagery and it's meaning, oh to be free. 🌹
Although I am generally a very contented individual and quite happy with my lot, I think if I could be anything else other than me, I would either be an eagle, a swift, a tawny owl or a red thighed falconet .. but then, there are those who think of me a just another horneythologist :)
I not only enjoyed the flight of fancy you took me on here but hold these words in high regard and enjoyed the message contained herein ..

I was feeding the birds this morning, (as always) and couldn’t stopping laughing. You have a great sense of humour, your clever cookie. I had to read it twice, in case you were saying Ornithologist and my brain was twisting the word. 😂😂
You don't have to worry about your eyes .. you can obviously see write through me .. and if I made you laugh, then that's what I call a win win .. Neville x
