First flight
His feet grasp the branch
The branch he’s known his whole life
But mama bird had to teach him how to fly
His brown eyes gleamed with anxiety and determination
He had to take a leap of faith
He took a deep breath and jumped
Mama bird chirped encouragement
As baby bird flapped his wings
Baby bird had left the nest
Grown up and passed the test
He now could fly way up high
His first flight oh his first flight
