Strong

Once, a sparrow was caught in a tinted cage of over nurture.
All she wanted to do was fly, she chirped at the man.
But all he saw was her small delicate wings.
 
The world is not a place for little ones.
The strong winds would knock you down
And predators would swallow you whole.


But she wasn't afraid.
The sky was her home and it sang to her.
She refused to eat until he gave her freedom.

The world may not be kind to little ones.
But I'm stronger than you believe.
Your love is restraining where it is meant to release.


He was reluctant to let her go but didn't want her to die.
She kissed him farewell and disappeared amongst the clouds,
Leaving him a song to remember, always.
