The Broken Wing
Fluttering, soaring,
nothing but air,
the birds without
troubles, without a
care...
That's what you see,
but know what you don't?
The pain and the sorrow of
a bird, all alone.
A broken wing, with a broken soul,
This is what you see,
in a bird so alone.
The others fly on,
leave him to die! But
he knows he can soar with the others...
If he tries.
Then the child comes along,
wants to fly like a bird,
and filled with song!
She sees the little bird all on her own, and says to her mother, "Can we please take her home?"
The bird once so free, had dropped to the ground, left to die,
making nary a sound.
The bird was found,
who was once so alone,
and where is it now?
The bird found a home.

You really are good at writing poetry! Can you please check out some of my writings as well?
I'm glad you liked my poem/story thing. I feel like I have to appologise though, it is a bit depressing, or at least is to me.
It always feels so special when people comment on your work, doesn't it? ^_^
No problem!! I thoroughly enjoyed your story! And your poem, was cute and witty. I hope you continue writing!! :)
And, if you get the time, will you read my story "How the Grinch Stole Christmas-- The REAL Story!" ?? I would love your comments!
God Bless,

I thought that the idea of this poem was really good, but I think it could flow little bit better. Play around with the lines. I hope this comment helps, and keep writing!
