The Bruised Bird
The child came with imploring words,
could I help this poor bruised bird?
There was no rhyme to help at all,
my words slammed into a glass wall~
as did the small yellow bird,
it needed a reflection to be heard.
No, child, I cannot help the poor dead bird,
I will use its feathers to write my words.
