• A bird crooned his mellow song,
    from outside a frosty window.
    But little was he,
    so he was not heard.
    He was not heard like so many other things that should be heard,
    like a child that has an inventive idea that seems stupid,
    or an ordinary person with an opinion on something,
    that is usually decided by people of a higher rank.
    But sometimes these ideas turn out to be the best ones,
    and they make the world a better place.
    Like taking public transportation instead of driving,
    or liking it better to give than recieve.
    I'm not saying that you should never drive,
    or that you shouldnt like to get presents.
    But I just think that we should appreciate and enjoy,
    everything we have to appreciate and enjoy.
    Before it gets tired of being ignored,
    and disappears.
    So if you want to be heard,
    and your ideas taken seriously,
    think about how it would feel to be that little bird.
    alone and in the barren treetops,
    Singing your beautiful song,
    with nobody to appreciate the soft melody
    Merry Christmas everybody.
