Im just a little bird
On God’s shoulder
Asking Him questions
about when I’m older
He says it will come
to me in good time
No one asks the bird’s purpose
before its flight
We just know
Its a personification of God’s love
as we are all
creations from up above
So as I keep asking
him questions more and more
He asks me why I need
to keep knocking on His door
When all His answers are in the present
And his hand holding me
Is the moon and its crescent
A sunlit tree
A grain of sand
A dreadful storm
Your mother’s hand
Its all unique,
you understand
Its all a gift
from the palm of his hand
It was all written
In His kind, masterous plan
That’s why we call “now” the present
His love for you Is always endless
So as my chirps die down
I hear just one sound
Its my hand reaching for the stars
With my feet on the ground
A wind blows from behind me
Reminding me I was lost and found
So I’ll leave all my questions for when I’m older
Because here,
at peace, I can stay
On His shoulder.
