Bird (Pint-Sized Poem #42)
The bird hit the window.
But it didn't die, it lived.
Instead it sang me a song.
And then flew away.
It is the epitome.
Of doing such hard work.
For such a little reward.
Oh, how I wish
I could be more
like that bird.
But it didn't die, it lived.
Instead it sang me a song.
And then flew away.
It is the epitome.
Of doing such hard work.
For such a little reward.
Oh, how I wish
I could be more
like that bird.

Great little poem. Reminds me of something Dorothy Parker would write and I love Dorothy Parker. Thank you!
