3.Behind Bars


He stood there looking laughingly at me


Wondering who this caged creature be


Held within this wall of concrete and steel


Wouldn’t she all cooped up and tied down feel?



With nonchalant disdain, he turned to preen


Thus eying him, I turned an envious green


As he picked his feathers with his beak so red


I felt wonderment deep inside me bred ….



For though trapped it seemed, he was


It was I who should be worried because


It was my world that was confining me


And though behind bars, HE was free !
