The Starling

Saturday, May 6th, 2017, 3:23 pm · by bradk · in Words

I walked along a quiet cypress grove
Lining a cool clear creek
And there I heard a muddled call
I looked and found a Starling there
Struggling in the roots, with an injured wing

I asked the bird,
“From where have you flown? And what has broken you so?”
The bird replied,
“I have flown from your heart and was broken by your desire.”

Be kind
In a cruel world
