                                                       LITTLE BIRD
                                                                                                          Aanya Sharma
                                                                                   Class X-A, N.K. Bagrodia Public School,
                                                                                                   Sector-9, Rohini, Delhi




            So alone,                                               Magic..she describes it ,
            So scared,                                              as a work of witch.
            Cold in the dark.                                       She is bound to it.
            Oh! Look at this pitiful creature                       Now, she loses track of time
            Sobbing in the dark.                                    And is blinded by its shine
            Out of its shell,                                       It's too late to go back now says she
            The little birdie comes,                                As though forever stuck in this reel
            Into the nothingness filled with dust                   Now she can't see where she is
            Solitary on this trail of darkness,                     With her light dimmer than
            She traces to find the light.                           it ever could be.
            But seeing the nothingness                              Oh! look at this poor birdie

            She gives up on the fight.                              Who blooming so late
            Oh! Look at this poor birdie who was weared down        All alone, all dirty
            The dark eats her up,                                   She again shouts for an aid
            And she slowly dies out.                                Yelping like a toddler nowhere to get
            "Help me" she cries,                                    And this time
            So, I give her a light.                                 I gave her a friend
            I put up with her tantrums,                             Her saviour and her help
            And helped her revive.                                  Who leads her out
            So innocent, she is filled with happiness               She is better and cleaner now

            She keeps on staring at its luminance.                  She thinks about the past
                                                                    And remembers all the misery
                                                                    She dragged herself at

                                                                    Oh look at this poor birdie
                                                                    Who now blames me for her agony
                                                                    She thought that I blinded her
                                                                    I mage her fall into a never ending sin
                                                                    But she forgot that it is I who gave her a kin
                                                                    Who gave her the strength to fight
                                                                    In her darkest of time
                                                                    Or she wouldn't have been alive
