Eyes glazed through tears as he looked out through his steel trees
his sorrow held for his friends outside ..they knew no other world
Their sadness still with him as his friends looked in
they tweeted an ache a longing to be there..
in the warmth of his house
in the safety of his nest...
They knew no other world as their voices wept

His master sat beside him knitting another jumper for the new born
sing birdy sing she said sing birdy sing ...
the bird sand a song of beauty ...sweet music to her ears
He knew his place on earth ..this place in heaven
