The Sun awoke
And dazzling rays shown
Reflecting on the golden wings
As two birds flew
To touch distant woods
The trees high up
And the grass below
Perched upon a branch
They watched the sky.
Under the water stream
There a small cloud stood
The birds flew to it.
“I make a castle of richness”
The male bird announced
And tried for his lady
But cloud refused to move
The lady then stepped in
And kissed the cloud
And made a beautiful heart.
Back in their nest
The birds watched
The heart sails in sky.
Next morning they saw
The sky full of hearts
One upon another
Not a castle of richness
But a castle of hearts
That reflected happily
In the stream called life.
