Left Versus Right

With the wind beneath its wings The bird soars high into the sky The wings spread, working in tandem Providing an effortless flight We see him drop from the air in an instant Controlled, he swoops from side to side Incredible balance and coordination The wings working together, the bird glides Each wing is a part Of the bird being whole If there's any disruption To the ground, the bird does go The wind would seem incomplete Without the beauty of the bird And we are much the same If there’s no unity in our words The wings work together There is no left versus right The same goes for us We need constructive discourse - not trivial fights Everything in life is contingent Life thrives when we’re all in harmony We’re all in this together The wind, the bird, and you and me
