I'Ll Never See a Bird Up Close

There it goes Fluttering along With the breath of spring As its rustling wings echo In my ears like permanent memories, Its image brightening the day scenery. But as I tiptoe as if the grass was thin ice My close view is what I sacrificed, When the bird flapped its wings and Soars away As if my tiptoes Brought rumbling tremors.
