The Sky Is Falling
The Sky is Falling
The bluebirds in the birdbath~
all were screeching today.
I had to listen very closely
To what they had to say:
"The sky is falling, tell everyone.
We soon we all be smashed out!"
More birds came with more news.
"Worse news, the trees are falling,
too."
We heard it from the Nobel Prize
Winners at the Einstein Zoo!
Some in great desperation, smashed
their baby eggs in sad consternation.
Some in utter sadness killed their old
Mother and Father birds, too.
There was no hope, they just knew it.
I mean, after all, who dare question
the Nobel Prize Winners at the Zoo?
There was, however,a group of cardinals
who never listened to the Oracles at the
Zoo and their doomsday news.
They lived each day in God's hands in
joy, faith and Divine Protection.
A lovely lady read to them from a book with
golden edges~
They twirled their heads, as she read.
One sat on her shoulder, with his soft
face against her tresses.
They knew there was a God, they lived
their days in glory.
The wise cardinals knew that only God
will call their final ending.
So, they never listened to fear stories.
The cardinals had many baby birds,
grand baby birds and great grand baby
birds!
And took care of their aging parent birds
and read to them, in warm blue blankets.
Right to their birdly ends.
The only news in the cardinal kingdom
was, and still is, since His world began:
" To God be all the glory! "
