FIRST FLIGHT

​

​

Fly little bird go spread your wings

You have so many wondrous things

​

To see way up there high in flight

Please leave your nest don't stay from fright

​

One day majestically you will soar

And we on the ground will gaze up in awe

​

As rivers forests and deep lakes of blue

Mountains and valleys pass beneath you

​

Spread your wings little bird not in fear but delight

Share with us the beauty of your first flight

​

Fly soon little bird for you haven't got long

To build up your wings and make them strong

 

As nature decrees for your species sake

A long perilous journey you have to make

​

Before winter comes you must be far away

To a land where the sun will shine each day

​

Don't be scared little bird try with all your might

To launch yourself off on your very first flight

​

The other fledglings have shown that they do

Have the courage to fly now it's your turn too

​

Your wings little bird will bring such delights

As they lift you up to the highest of heights
