Little Bird

Little bird outside my window
from where did your song begin?
Was it from a dream?
Melodious and cheerful
your singing gently woke me.
I looked through my bedroom window
and saw you flutter away.
The sky was blue.
A slight breeze quivered the leaves
on the trees.
I rubbed my eyes and pondered
if I was still asleep.
Drifting up off the floor
I floated out the window.
As vapor I passed through
the tree branches
and into the sky.
I swirled within a flock of starlings
over a grassy field.
Fluttering wings were all around me.
Then I rose higher into the sky
and merged with a darkened cloud.
Suspended among the droplets
I became rain.
As perfectly round beads of water
I poured to the ground.
Then I became a water puddle.
A child played in me with such joy.
He jumped and splashed
til his mother called for him.
The sun came out and
I returned into vapor.
I floated upward into the sky
and became dew
on the wings of an eagle
that landed on a high tree top.
He shook his feathers and
I landed on green pine needles.
I glistened in the sun
before I floated up into the air again.
Up into the clouds once more
I became snowflakes.
I melted and trickled
down the chimney of my house.
When I reached the floor
I regained my original form
and woke in my bed to hear
the little bird sing outside
my bedroom window.
I thought, little bird,
you must be magical
to have delivered such a dream
Or maybe my soul
is the notes that the little bird sings.
