God in the backyard

encountered God in the back
a bird, a lawnmower, a hack
mowing the yard, clean up a mess
a young bird fallen from its nest
parent squawking, frantic tone
calling out, to its own
little birdie doesn't fly
sits there mouth opened wide
finished with the task at hand
now it's time the mowing began
cautiously mowing a place
to shew the little one safe
don't know when don't know how
little birdie could not be found
heard His voice speak to me
I've taken care of little bird tweet
that's my job it's what I do
thanks but I'm much better than you
O' yes I love you more than a bird
but your helping me is absurd
you've taken it upon yourself
to save the little bird and who else
I've asked you to follow me
to be a light for all to see
I've not equipped you to be Me
let the little birdies be.
