A bird flying so far away Admiring every glimpse of day From the fish in the sea to the trees that stand tall The free, flying bird admired it all Then a blast came from two hunters below She fell to the ground, covered in snow The humans took her far from her place Where there was no glimpse of the tree’s grace Trapped in a cage she sat all day Wondering when she would again fly far, far away But her wing was hurt, and couldn’t fly So she yelled and sobbed and started to cry But the humans ignored her and walked away, Opened a door and she saw a glimpse of day It was her past, where she longed most to go She was much to weak to attempt to go, so She sat still, admiring the glimpse of day And peace, but could no longer fly far, far away

Bird in a Cage
A bird flying so far away Admiring every glimpse of day From the fish in the sea to the trees that stand tall The free, flying bird admired it all Then a blast came from two hunters below She fell to the ground, covered in snow The humans took her far from her place Where there was no glimpse of the tree’s grace Trapped in a cage she sat all day Wondering when she would again fly far, far away But her wing was hurt, and couldn’t fly So she yelled and sobbed and started to cry But the humans ignored her and walked away, Opened a door and she saw a glimpse of day It was her past, where she longed most to go She was much to weak to attempt to go, so She sat still, admiring the glimpse of day And peace, but could no longer fly far, far away
