My Little Bird

by: Emily Bell '25

I've always wanted a little
bird,

one to call my own.

It seems as though I can
never find one -

buying one would be

untrue,

hurtful even.

So, I wait for the perfect
bird to find me,

to find me and to be all

mine.

I wait and I wait

and I hope and I hope,

until some little bird finds
me.

Will it ever happen?

I don't know…

But I know it will be worth it
in the end, when my little

bird will be all mine.
