ME AND THE LITTLE BIRD

by D Jon Versatino   Jan 14, 2009


In a frustrating glumness I took a walk,
In my direction I took the silent path,
On the path I know it is going to be a layout
On this layout I know its an exit that leads to beautiful flower forest,
And in this beautiful flower forest,
I know sadness is not what I needed
Because beautiful things are made from the transmit of happy mind
With this thought buzzing in my head, I know I am in the 2 in 1 mood
SADNESS and THINKING
And in these mood I know I had to choose just one to make a change over.
In my choosing I knew Thinking will far better,
With thinking all useful things are being made.
In my thinking I found out I was lacking is happiness,
In the process to make myself happy I discovered that happiness is far beyond my reach.
With this I fathom-out that most time I can not make myself happy all alone.
So I regretted for not taking the path I will find some one to talk with
Singing and dancing on an old dried flower tree is a little colorful bird,
With his singing and dancing I knew I found one happy creature around.
With my feet assured I took a walk down,
At my reached I stand silently facing yonder,
Taking a beautiful look at this young bird
With such a beautiful sight I fell into another realm of thought
I wish I could tell him my mind,
And in my mind I wish he will understand my language.
While still in these state of thought,
This little bird dropped his solid waist on my fore head
Just between my eyes
Oops, my heart grew hushed and stilled in huge bitterness;
Even as he swung his tail at me.
Damn! I wish I could fly like a Superman and get him stifle to dead.
But before I could say Hail U he flew downward to wards my very eyes
And perched on my shoulder
Oh! I could not believe it, it was a surprise beyond my expectation,
Blissfully, I gave a pleasant smile, and all my glumness and bitterness got disappeared.
And I took real smile from a real happy heart.
I never believed that he could fetch me such a heart-full smile after what he did.
I hope to take him home and make him my friend for ever, I wish to tell him my name and him too; but just before I could say THANK YOU he flew away. Oh!
I quickly climbed the nearest hill and shouted a very big Thank You.
At last I was free from glumness, really free to smile again.
Finally, I fathom out that even a little SAY or THING can put a remarkable smile on our face, and our heart; Even the animals.
And with this, I realized that God in His infinite wisdom can pull off our sadness and our sorrow with just a single drop of what we do not even expect.
