Migratory Bird

Poetry by PerditusNovember 18, 2020November 18, 2020

It’s difficult to comprehend

the direction you are heading

You think you are on path

Then you find a dead end

Or have somehow

taken a wrong turn

🌑

Sometimes the hamster

on a wheel

Running faster and

faster

to reach your destination

But find yourself

where you started

🌑

Or the lemming

Having to make

a leap of faith

Hoping that it

will all work out

ok

🌑

I’d rather be like a

migratory bird

certain of my direction

moving forward

but

there would still be

storms to overcome

Have you ever seen that bit on one of the film “The Hobbit” where they keep going round and round, and it seems like the stuff is different, but they’ve actually gone around in circles….?

Bravo, Stu! This is, in my opinion, your magnum opus out of the ones I have read. Sensational. Currently, I feel like the hamster, but soon I hope I’m the bird 😁 Best wishes
