Colorado Magpie

She takes her morning bread and flies away.

Where does she go?What does she do?Whom does she feed?I try to watch where she goes,but she flies beyond my view.

Where does she take her bread?

I want to fly away with her and see,

but I must keep walking on my path

to be the bread that I am.

I long for the day when I can fly away with her,

yet today I am content to feel her heart beat in mine

as we walk this path together.
