After a long and freezing winter,
A bird came to my window singing.
Its sweet melody woke me up, saying,
“See life is beautiful, there is always a spring after autumn.”
I woke up to its sweet serenade,
And heard its message loud and clear.
“See,” it sang, “there’s a new day,
A spring after every autumn year.”
In its melody, I found solace,
And a moment of respite from the world.
The bird reminded me to embrace
The simple joys that life unfurled.
I do not know if it was you, my love,
Or God Himself, who brought this bird my way.
Or perhaps my father, who walks above,
Whispering hope to me each day.
But what I do know, is that it was a holy soul,
That came to rescue me from my despair.
And in that moment, I felt whole,
Breathing in the fresh, fragrant air.
Oh, how wondrous it is to witness
Nature’s marvels in their element.
The bird’s song, a simple bliss,
A reminder of life’s true sentiment.
