Blackbird
By Brianna Lax
There once was a blackbird, who hated the black shades of his wings and body. All the birds in the forest used to laugh at him and tell him "Oh Blackbird! You have the worst color of the jungle!" The Blackbird felt bad that he was a black color. The Blackbird used to be called Crow but now he is called Blackbird. One day an idea came to him. He made a mixture of the green grass and leaves and added water to it. the mixture became like green paint.
The Blackbird Spread the Green mixture aroun him self and went to boast. "Look at me fellow friend! Look at the shine, It never ends!" Said Blackbird tilting his head. The birds tried to hide there laugh but could not! One by one the birds fell to the groud with tears of laughter. The Blackbird Went sadly back to his nest and took out planB. Plan B was a much better plan then plan A. Blackbird to blueberries and squished them to make a paste. Then added water and he made blue paint. "The blue Jays will not make fun of me now! I am the same color as they are!" Muttered blackbird to himself. Then started boasting. "Look at my beautiful blue! I am now pretty as you!" Said Blackbird proudly. Just as Blackbird finished his sentence there was silece and then laughter!
The Blue Jays said "How dare you make fun of our color!" Then one little one poked his head and said, "Mabey you should change youself" That night the blackbird thought about this. Then he made his final dissision. He changed himself by cutting off his left wing. The next day he showed of. All of them gasped in horrer! The wingless bird! The birds took him directly to the hospital. That next day after black bird got a fake wing he was still in the hospital. The little blue jay that gave him advice stepped into the room with a boquet of flowers. "Oh uncle blackbird! I said change the inside of yourself! love yourself!" and then the little blue Jay burst in to tears. The blackbird comforted him. "It is alright little one! I forgive you!" The blue jay wiped his tears and ran out of the hospital room. A few weeks later the blackbird learned to love himself and enjoyed having black all over him. Also the little blue jay agreed to be friends with the black bird and called him the crow!
The End
