Fly, Fly, Fly! Little Birdy!

By Jacob Monroe Dedicated to Sophia Illustrated by Aleksandra Bobrek Read by Jana With music by Bertie

The Book of this lovely verse is available on Amazon.

Today is Birdy’s birthday Just hatched from her egg Her eyes will want to open As she tries to move her legs

She sees the world around her With trees and bees and plants She looks around and looks right up And sees her happy parents. Birdy’s one month olds now Can move and see just fine She’s even asked her parents Can you teach me how to fly? She tries and tries and tries some more It’s harder than it seems And when she thinks she’s tried too hard She’s flying with her wings! She flies up high above the park Far away from where she’s from She sees new things she’s never seen What fun this has become! Flying further than she planned She comes across new things They’re big and small and oddly shaped And most do not have wings! Quite some time along the way Birdy makes new friends They fly with her and run along And search for hidden gems. When Birdy wants to fly some more Her friends lay down to rest They say goodbye and sing a song And wish her all the best! Moving fast and flying high The bird has seen it all Volcanoes, trees and lovely friends A place called Montreal. A pretty world to live in For Birdy to explore But just one thing was on her mind She hadn’t thought of before She left her home in such a rush She did not say goodbye She turns around to fly straight home Before she starts to cry. But wait a minute, wait right there I think I know this place That tower and that boat That green statue with the face! She flies up high to look around And searches for her nest She sees the trees and bees again And flies her very best! She finds her tree and looks to see Her parents’ happy smile She hugs them big and tells her tale As they listen all the while …
