To celebrate freedom a bird <br />will soar on high triumphantly <br />Ensuring that it will be heard <br /> singing in freedom joyfully. <br />Freed from its cage by accident <br />the door left open by mistake. <br />Turned loose to make its first ascent. <br />Alas the last that it will make. <br />Because it is so different <br /> the wild birds will attack on sight <br /> to kill this stranger their intent <br />Without remorse as they think right <br />The song bird dies a tragedy <br /> but better than captivity. <br /> <br />2-Mar-08<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/free-flight-for-friend-thad/
