We have this little baby bird
and it seems only natural we’d worry
whether she’ll be able to fly
whether she’ll be able to touch
the sky
but if we look closely
we notice
the sky is within her eyes
the sky is reflected under lids
that have just opened
for the first time
if we look closely
we notice that her world
both infinitely complex
and so very simple
has a sort of completeness
something came alive
that was not there before
when you look at her
you can see that the heart beats
in the whole of the body.
