The spectator
Happily chirping
And flying about
I saw you
Basking in sunlight
Agile
Singing your own song
Picking up bread crumbs
Sitting unaware
I saw you
Getting caught
Caged
Taken away
Inside a golden cage
Hung in a garden
Read the rest of the poem Show less
I saw you
Asked to sing
Listless
Sitting in a corner
Being fed
Fresh nuts and water
I saw you
Looking through the bars
Sad
Longing to get out
Suddenly a hand
Opened the cage
I saw you
Stepping behind
Hesitant
Before you flew away
Happily chirping
And flying about
I see you
Basking in sunlight
Agile
Singing your own song
