There once was a bird,

who never said a word.

He was just a kid,

but one day he did.

He said, "Mama let me fly,

let me fly in the sky!

Let me leave the tree,

let me be with Jim and Bree!"

Mama said, "I'll train you,

flying will be something you do.

You'll be flying around and around

and all through town!"

"First you will fall

from the tree that is tall,

you will flap your feathers

just like Heather"

The bird's name was Dwight

and all he wanted was flight.

He wanted to soar.

He wanted nothing more.

He then took off and began to flap,

and Mama bird began to clap.

But then he wasn't doing too well,

as he quickly fell...

Mama flew down to talk to her kid.

"You were doing well, you did,"

I'm proud of you son

and you'll get flying done.

Dwight said, "What's the deal?

I don't want to swim like a seal.

I want to fly like a bird or a bat,

I want just that."
