Bird

I ruffle my feathers
knowing you’ll walk by soon
I whisper my lines
knowing you’ll ask how I am
I bite back the angry words
trying to smooth my plumage
Smile nod
yes, I heard what you said
And yes, I am doing fine

soos ek se, ek begryp gewoonlik nie poetry nie, maar ek geniet dit steeds. so hou aan skrywe!
