A poem on rest

Lazy bird, Lazy bird
always getting your fill of seeds
Lazy bird, Lazy bird
realize you have all you need

Stay in your nest for while
you know it's good for ya'
Don't fly away for today
because your home can't feel your burden

Frail bird, Frail bird
you think the world will fall apart without you
just know the Lord of all
made the earth 
and even all its hues

Jailbird, Jailbird
you treat rest as a cage
fluttering about inside yourself
pondering this time as a waste

Just stay in your nest for a while
you know it's good for ya'
Don't fly away for today
because your home can't feel your burden
