rssIn this very freedom from illusion he recognized the loss of something. From now on, every hour of lightheartedness would be, not a prerogative but an achievement. - D.L. Sayers

The Gooloo Bird - Shel Silverstein (1930-1999)
Hopeful mother, without resources
The Gooloo bird
She has no feet.
She cannot walk
Upon the street.
She cannot build
Herself a nest,
She cannot land
And take a rest.
Through rain and snow
And thunderous skies,
She weeps forever
As she flies,
And lays her eggs
High over town,
And prays that they
Fall safely down.
Gooloo, a poem from A Light in the Attic, Shel Silverstein
