There is a great big world out there
The bird stands on the edge
She stands where she has called home
She looks over all that is waiting for her
She has prepared for the day
She will leap into this new world
She learned a lot about life
from the comfort of her nest
but still she knows there is more
There is more of life and living
There is more to see and explore
There are more ways to learn
She will leave her comfort zone
The lacks checks of health are underway
She knows her time is coming
The nest has brought her comfort
But it holds her back
She will be strong enough soon
She knows the last steps to be made
She ruffles those feathers
And longs for the day.
