"There is no living thing that is not afraid when it faces danger. True courage is in facing danger when you are afraid." -L. Frank Baum, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz"


The seagull cries out
And flaps his white wings
While he tries to respond
To the birds who can sing

He screeches and caws
And tries to make song
The other birds laugh
And egg him along

He lets out a noise
That startles the peace
And all of the songbirds’
Singing does cease

He silenced his voice
For a different day
He never will sing
But he tries anyway
