Once upon a time in a land far away,
There was a beautiful pond where the ducks would play,
They'd swim and they'd quack and have lots of fun,
Under the warm rays of the shining sun.

One day, a little bird flew by,
It was looking for a place to rest and lie,
It spotted a cage in the nearby town,
But it didn't feel safe, and wanted to fly around.

The bird found a playground, a perfect place to rest,
Where it could play and feel its best,
It hopped and skipped and flapped its wings,
And enjoyed all the beautiful things.

As the day came to an end,
The little bird had to find a friend,
It took a path towards the pond,
Where it met the ducks and they formed a bond.

Now the little bird is happy and free,
Living a life full of joy and glee,
In the beautiful pond, it found a new home,
And never again will it feel alone.
