Midnight Bird

Tiny midnight bird                          alone in the sky,                            resting after it's morning fly.                        It begins to sing                                a beautiful cry;                                      preaching sigh.                               Again,                        midnight bird,                        flies past us,                    flies past the sky,                  to nest in the trees.                     We wonder just why                       he still cries                         and flies                           alone,                        every day,                upon every night,              is he in pain,           does he feel such fright?              He, a beutiful creature,                 without a care,               goes everywhere                       even                 still alone                    he sits,                   wihtout a plan?                       Possibly he has many,                   he too could look upon-                               look apon us below.                He might think           opposite thought,                            Together,                                why such?                                    Why not alone?                  Happier we would be                  if we were like he.
