A birthday story for S

In a little nest on a tree, lived a little sparrow.
The sparrow hopped from branch to branch,
searching for food, to feed herself and her chicks...
Once the little sparrow stepped on a thorn,
She hurt herself, and from that day she limped...
Poor sparrow, everytime she hopped,
she would whimper in pain.
she hopped and hopped and hopped
when she finally came to face an owl.
The owl was old, he was wise.
She said to him about her pain
that she so fully agonized.
The old wise owl said to her.
Why do you need to hop, while all you need is to fly!
