Hello Little Bird

by Caroline Parke

/

about

Slowing on the dirt road to curve up the driveway, a group of
swallows surrounded my vehicle and swooped underneath.
The moment was over before I could hit the breaks.
What became of the birds? Were any injured?
This song depicts the glimmer of that beautiful moment.

lyrics

Hello little bird little bird
You tweeted and I heard and I heard
A picnic in the park, just south of the trees
Children throwing crumbs all for you and me
Hello little bird, little bird You take the scenic route to your perch
And as I go my way I shed a tear and cry
It’s more than I can bear, such grace across the sky
Hello little bird, little bird I see you little bird, little bird Hmmm hmm
Hello little bird, little bird You’re swooping through the air undeterred
Just keep on being you the apple of God’s eye
Let nothing keep from you your freedom and your flight
Hello little bird little bird You’re a gift to me, I am sure
I pull off beside the road to stay with you awhile
Do you know I’m here can you feel me smile
Hello little bird little bird I see you little bird, little bird
I love you little bird, little bird
