Look there is a dead bird,
Must had hit the window;
If only it had heard,
Warnings that did bellow.
Is it not beautiful,
It is so delicate;
Bird Heaven not that full,
That God lets through the gate.
Once it becomes too late,
Such miracles as life;
You cannot appreciate,
Because of all the strife.
You realize that nature,
Is as ruthless as man;
Counts each living creature,
But less than what God can.
Our existence frail,
Temporary and precious;
But endure and prevail,
In being courageous.
Our daily affairs,
Taking it for granted;
Shrugging off all the dares,
Advantageously slanted.
All for granted we take,
Acting so thoughtlessly;
For God would not forsake,
Not intentionally.
Maybe once we mature,
Into our next life;
Comprehension will cure,
Far from toils and strife.
