A debilitated bird(倦鸟)

A little bird had been flying for a long time

from dawn to dark

from the south to the north

went through numberless shower and hailstones

one night she was feckly fallen into a deep trap when she was searching for the worms in a desert

one day she was almost killed by a shotgun while she was stopped in a snowy hill

fortunatelly she was escaped with bare life each time

then she may went on in flight

she flicked her lightsome wings

not knowing where is the destination

maybe her life has no destination but a hard journey

once over a hinterland she saw a wandering weak child with shedding tears crying for her gone mother

she sang several lovely songs to her but her tone was so faint that the half-deaf girl can never heard of her songs

once passing a shanty she saw a middle-aged man with incurable disease whining for his lost youth and lovers

she made an amused dancing to soothe him but the man was too sorrow to caught a sight with her dancing

whenever she travels by the noisy cities, millions of busy men and women go back and forth in a hurry, with their tighten brows and exhausted shapes

so many of them complained why pain doesn't mean gain? why the destiny always so unfair to them?

she was so admiring them they can possess houses to stay safe and sound

till so much tones shouting to her such like,Look! how lucky and happy to be a free bird!

so she went on in flight with light-hearted

she flicked her heavy wings

it's a long journey without knowing where is her destination

one day at last

she felt so debilitated

her wings getting heavier and heavier

her eyes becoming more and more blurred

she tried to do all her could to continue her flurr

to find a quite location to stopover for a rest

she winged over a cloud after a cloud

a building after a building

a bridge after a bridge

as she was nearly to give up and drop herself into a marsh

a big flowering apple tree in a green wood beside a peaceful brook appeared under her gleamy eyes

she gamboled gently onto a bulky trunk of the big apple tree

quickly,she slept like a log

from the dark to the dawn

here has no hungry,no trap,no snowstorm and no gunshot any more

but the bird with her shadow lying in the moonlight and sunshine

no tears,no death,no regrets, no poverty,no past and no future

but the bird with the abloom tree and the ripply brook in a peaceful small world

if there's really no destination

and if life is nothing else but a long hard journey

she will take things as they come tomorrow

but hush now, please

she really needs a good sleep

now she is smiling in her dream,a most safe and sound dream
