If I Were a Bird

 

If I were a bird, I would fly high in the big blue sky every day. I would have colorful wings to travel anywhere I want without needing a car or a bus. My morning would start by singing a happy song on a green tree branch to wake up the world. I would make many bird friends, and together we would fly over tall mountains, clear rivers, and beautiful flower gardens. I would not have to worry about school or work; instead, I would look for tasty fruits and build a small, cozy nest with dry leaves. From the sky, everything below would look like a tiny, wonderful toy world. When it rains, I would hide under big leaves or fly fast to find shelter, feeling the cool water drops but staying safe. I would have to be very careful to stay away from cats and hunters. Being a bird would make me a real part of nature, feeling truly free with the wind under my wings. Even though I am a human, dreaming of being a bird makes me feel very free and happy inside.
