Birds Drop In With Questions
Birds Drop In With Questions
(Birds Don’t Catch Falling People)
Fly high on the happy open sky little ones
Sometimes birds collide with jets in flight
Humans have the right of way in aerospace
Why is there so much traffic?
Passengers like to step outside for fresh air
Sometimes they forget their parachutes
To confine people in small places is wrong
What ever happened to imagination?
Birds wonder why people don’t eat more bugs and seeds
How do they fly without feathers and wings?
Colliding with birdies is the least of their problems
Birds don’t catch falling people all the time
In fact never if you don’t mind
Don’t worry about our friends in free fall
They think about religion and politics going down
And how to lose weight at the gymnasium
And make a loud thud upon landing
