A Poem for a Baby Bird

There is a bird nest over the light by the front door. When returning from walking my dog, Lilly, I noticed a dead bird chick was on the doorstep under the light, and I buried it in the backyard. My mom said that she would move the nest after the other birds’ chicks left.

 

A Poem For Baby Birds

 

Growth is a process,

A process of change.

And prepares us to fly.

The first Federalist Paper warns, “A torrent of angry and malignment passions will be let loose. To judge from the conduct of the opposite parties, we shall be led to conclude that they will mutually hope to evince the justness of their opinions, and to increase the number of their converts by the loudness of their declamations and the bitterness of their invectives.
