Little Bird

Little bird,

Why are you scrunched up?

Why aren't you soaring in the sky?

"I'm scared.

I may not fly well

And fall.

I may hurt my legs

And be mocked,"

Said the little bird.

Let me fly with you then.

Always look up when you feel you're falling,

And remember—

I'm with you.

Dear little bird,

Fly,

Fly so high in the sky.

There’s no limit to what you can achieve,

So don’t be scared.

Little bird

Will someday grow big.
