Caged Bird

The bird is a beautiful creature that soars to unmatchable heights with unparalleled grace. It is a horrible being to cage – locking up the magnificent just because it can reach lofty places could be described as nothing less. Birds don't belong in a cage where their wings remain worthless.

But even the caged bird can fly. And – no matter how small the cage or how long they are held captive – it climbs heights because birds do not fall. They float to the ground instead. Birds will fly – until you clip their wings.
