The Secret : Part 1

A long time ago

In the forest of green and blue

There was a bird with red feathers

And along it flew

She had a loving owner

As you can see

But the owner has a secret

Unlike you and me

Her family didn't know her secret

Let alone a bird

She was as quiet as a mouse about it

She didn't speak a word

This secret is very special to her

She can't say it for minutes and hours

She wants to tell us both about it

You don't know how much she devours

But one day she told her bird about it

So she went into disguise

She knew she would get a curse on her

As a thick and horrifying surprise

So she travelled to a foreign land

She didn't know the time zone

But soon she realised it was the past

Because all she saw was sticks and bones

The worst year ever was almost upon us

1889

This year had something bad about it

Something not very divine

The ghosts of past, present and future

Were coming very near

But when she came to think about it

Her eyes had came to tears
