I met a Canada Goose

And said how are things?

She said I have no choice,

I take what life brings.

 

Am trying to build a nest

Somewhere safe and wet,

And all these decisions

Are making me sweat.

 

I met a Blue Heron,

Not looking all that great.

She was rather sad,

Because she lost her mate.

 

I said look over there!

See him in the tall grass?

He is looking for fish,

Like Kokanee and bass.

 

I saw a grand osprey,

In a nest up so high.

Keenly guarding her nest,

Wanting nothing awry.

 

How majestic she looked

Gliding in the blue sky.

I would love to explore;

How I wish I could fly.
