A beautiful little bird
H
opping on the grass
singing merrily
dancing happily
spent her time long
on the well-kept grass
worried about nothing
thinking not of past
looking at none in front
hearing no other talk in the back
appeared in perfect dazzle
Had no castle overhead
had no paintings or pictures
hanging on walls of her nest
Oh! she needs none
Castle, paintings or pictures
as she herself is an embodiment
a combination of all things good and great.

The Paramour.
A bird was hopping on the grass
while another one went behind in a flash
tracking all through perhaps a lass.
The bird went to and fro shunning the lass
while the friend trotted behind in a slash
seeming to pacify the former with a crash.
The former took in speed from the grass
while the paramour flew behind in a dash
as though intending to offer a hash.
Perceiving them I had a story not trash
looking at the birds from behind the glass
lest going in front would distract them in a bash.
The bird flew in circles.
It went up and down
it was hovering high
then it descended low.
The bird then stooped down
and sulked on the ground.
Spread its feathers around.
Covering itself in the foreground.
It lay there still for a few minutes
shirking its feathers violently
it rose up in a momentous flight..
In a quick it flew away.
Turning around I saw another bird yonder
It lay still beaten to death by a passerby.
Having lost its companion the bird had
expressed its bereavement through its restlessness.

The Joy of Freedom
Running through the pages
found a lovely image
of a bird in a cage.
whose big eyes looked sad.
The bird seemed to be desolate with fear
as it had no freedom to relish and cheer
seemed to curl itself in the rear
The image brought tears.
Perhaps the bird was thinking
of its friends in the trees flying
hopping, pecking and singing
enjoying every minute of their life.
The joy of freedom is infinitive
The little bird held as a fugitive
in the cage would get a feed remunerative
but has lost the rejoice of being free.
With a heavy heart turned the pages
recollecting the freedom movement in stages.
wondering how did the fighters survived the outrage
Heaving a sigh threw the book in disgust.
The Loving Grand Pa
Early in the morning there was a sound.
It was not the cock a doodle do.
It was not the clock’s ding-dong.
It was not the baby’s shrill cry.
It was not the bird’s sweet call.
It was not the mother’s shout.
It was not the father’s retort.
It was not the boy’s grumbling.
It was not the paper boy’s cycle bell.
It was not the milkman’s loud alarm.
It was not the whistling tea-pot.
It was not the hissing shower.
It was, it was, a snore.
Emanating from grand pa.
There was a squeak at the door.
It was a bird at the door.
It pecked on the door.
It was a rap. rapping on the door.
The noise, then slowed down to the core.
It looked strange more and more.
The bird stopped tapping at the door.
It moved away from the door.
It then rose up in a soar.
It looked familiar more and more.
