　　玛丽很喜欢小动物.有一天早晨她在林中漫步时发现草地上有两只很虚弱的小鸟.她把它们带回家装进一个小笼子里.在她的悉心照料下两只小鸟长得很好.作为酬谢,它们每天早上给玛丽唱一首动听的歌.

　　但是有一天出事了.大一点儿的那只鸟从笼子里飞了出来!玛丽认为它要飞走了,于是她就去抓它.抓到它时她非常兴奋.突然,她觉得有点儿奇怪.打开手掌,她发现那只鸟已经死了.她很伤心.是她的爱害死了这只鸟!

　　另一只鸟在笼子里来回移动.玛丽感觉到它飞出牢笼,飞向蓝天.她立刻把鸟从笼子里放出来,让它飞走了.

　　玛丽开心地看着鸟边飞边唱.它的歌声是她所听过的最美妙的.你把爱抓得越紧,你就越容易失去它.最容易拥有爱的办法恰恰是给爱插上翅膀.
