Bird Swiftly Soaring, by Austin Hoehn Subscribe to rss feed for 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?
