POEM STARTER

Submitted by Its_Ady

Write a poem about a bird who was once human.

Even now, it remembers what it was like to have hands, to touch, to hold, and to feel. Now wings beat where arms once moved, but the memories never fade.

When I Was Human

I remember the days

The haze

Of life in a maze


Of rights being wrong

The unbroken song

While the broken danced along


Oh how those times

were never mine

Never fine


Oh how I cried

And cried

When she died


Life with a wife

When I was human

Bound by strife


Oh how the knife

Should have taken my life


But grief

let me fly

Gave me wings

when I cried


Now I am a bird

Without the burden

Of this world


Yet still

I mourn

Those days in the haze

Oh how the tears flow

For my time in the maze
