Stay Strong

Written for a dear friend after a tragic accident:

Stay strong little bird
The wind is strong 
pushing against you
But, be brave little bird
Spread your wings
flex your muscles
Spread your wings 
- and fly
Fly above the 
turbulent clouds
Rise above the 
thunder and rain
Fly
Rise above
and come back
smiling again
