The Singing Bird

Earnest White Monday, April 13, 2009 9

by  HEATHER REED

While walking to school
I heard
a
bird.
 
So I turned
to see
it was looking at
me!
 
But I tripped
and fell
and
well…
 
I kicked the curb
and as I hit the dirt
I realized how
much it really hurt.
 
I hoped it
did no harm.
But I also
scraped my arm.
 
I pulled up my
sleeve
I still hoped
the bird would not leave.
 
But it still
sang
as the school bell
rang!
 
And as I went on
my way
I hoped it would
be here later this day.
