Bird Swiftly Soaring

By Austin Hoehn •
Bird, oh bird
swiftly soaring
through the open sky,
what brilliant mind?
what brilliant hand?
could have molded
such a creature?
Way up where
the air is thin
how could something so fragile
soar so gracefully
through the blue?
How could such a small creature
make such a noise
that brings on the coming of a new day?
Who could make such a creature
that could make a home
with nothing but nature
to hold it though a wind storm?
Bird, oh bird
swiftly soaring
through the open sky,
what brilliant hand
could have molded
such a creature?
