Little Bird Told Me

Little Bird Told Me

A Poem by sri

 

Little Bird Told Me


One day a little bird spoke to me

of a gift that comes from a resume

he said little me be ready for a ray of joy

to be gurgled fast down ahoy


Today little bird shouts to me

from a sturdy branch of the cork tree

be strong for what’s to come and conquer

of what you fear of your taker

 

 

Yesterday little bird whispered to me

that it is time to let my baby be

fly, grow and nurture love in sorrow

live heartily of the happy mellow

 

 

Someday little bird will breathe to me

from across the balmy south china sea

my dream will be to come and take me

forever lost in that degree.

the resume in the second line of the first stanza is referring to life or life experience

My mother used to say that a little bird told her when I asked how did she know what I was going to ask or say.
It's a beautiful poem with eloquent form and timing. Your English is fairly good, but I'm having problems understanding the second line of the first stanza, it's the context of resume that I don't understand. If you or someone else can set me straight, please.

I really did enjoy this piece. Good write.
