Each God Given Day (Ode)

It's of birds and persistence

 A bird’s life …
Mean and meager
Eking out
A hard existence

Each and every day…

Yet always they strive
Are e’er eager
Existing out of
Pure persistence

Each and every day…

And wrest the best
From their meager
Subsistence
And take
what they’re given

…From each God given day…

Author's Note

I admire birds! (and persistence)

I also admire birds, who sing despite the weather. Butterflies have an even shorter life, but they spread beauty through it.

[J. J. Nightingale]

I also admire birds...I feed them daily... and I see them waiting in the morn
I wonder why they count on me being there.....

Matthew 6:26 - Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?..

Lessons to be learned, each and every day.............

Nice........Jazz

and i have a nest across the street right below our mailboxes...and they are struggling to survive, those little ones...

many humans eke out meager existence...but find the courage to fly when the situations get the worst...

on wings of survival...

lovely piece with a double meaning...
