10. An Analogy

I feel like the bird with blue feathers-

Flying without any aim,

Simply singing for the different weathers,

For myself, not for fame.

But people say-

Don't be like it,

Be brighter than the sun rays,

Like the neon light lit.

But ask the bird so quaint,

Isn't it gay?

The little bird doesn't try to be a giant,

And is content with its lay.

So should I be the bird blue feathered,

Or the neon light artificially manufactured?
