the little girl asked
What are the birds
trying to say
What
See how they are scribbling in the
sky Scribble scribble scribble
What are they trying to say
he watched the starlings murmurations
their twisting an doubling their frantic
knotting
scribbling as she said
I dont know honey Theyre very excitedhuh
Though it seems happy writing Very
happy
Doesnt it
It does Yes
I think if I could fly I would
write like that too
he looked up again
then breathless high in his throat Yes I would too love I would too
