Baby bird released
Soars on healed wings. No glance down
For earthbound mother
About the Creator
The Tango Connection
I suppose I've become a writer so I wouldn't bore everyone to death telling them my stories. Reading them is reading. Not the same. There's rhythm. And timing and, most importantly, drama and suspense. Unless you have tremendous magnetism and an undeniable stage presence, there's no way you can engage an audience the way you can by writing your story. That's my opinion.

Powerfully wistful.
Superb! Emma This poem captures the bittersweet moment of letting go. The image of the baby bird soaring with "healed wings" speaks to growth and independence, while the "earthbound mother" left behind says so much with so little. It's short, yet packed with emotion—simple and effective.
