The Opera One Day

They all grabbed the air
And flew on away.
Except you who stayed
And had something to say.
You sang and sang
Till you’re little heart could burst.
While the giant who watched
Frowned and feared the worst.
So you changed your song
To a light and pretty jest.
The tall man smiled and said
Your song was the best.
Then the tune changed
It was sad and slow.
Giant tears he cried
It made him feel so low.
So the day passed
With notes so sublime. 
That both giant and bird
Could have spent a lifetime.
