Fly Away, Little Bird

Fly away, little bird
Join the others in a new life
Sing songs of the happy
And soar with blue skies.

Don't mind my tears,
Little bird.
I will just miss you terribly
And the undeniable cheer
You snuck into this tired old heart.

I gave you all that I could
And it was enough to put you
On those feet and delicate legs.

Now, fly away, little bird
But know you always have a home
Here in these arms,
Waiting to love you.
