Traits of the solitary song bird

It seeks the highest place;
It withstands less company;
It holds its beak to the air;
It has no definate color;
It sings sweetly!
To rise above passing things, paying no more heed to them than if they should not exist.
To be found in silence and solitude that it could less tolerate the company of another creature.
To hold ones beak to the air of the Holy Spirit, responding to His inspiration, that by so doing it may become worthy of His company. To have no definate color, desiring to do nothing definate other than the will of God; Singing sweetly in contemplation and love of its Spouse...This is this little song birds total desire!
