Yearn to see Pigeon in Human
Pigeon-Tower at entrance of village
Different breeds of pigeons feeding on grains
Pigeons picking up grains
Beaks, not distinguishing grains, by donors religion
Grains, of different donors, lie scattered
All looking same, no tags of donors religion on grains
Pigeons, picking grains randomly, a routine since ages
No dynasties, no politicians could teach them to be choosy
In peace they live, bite, fly, return, bite, fly
Harmony personified, humans made them symbol of Peace
Seeing pigeons harmony, bit jealously seeped in
Wondered, why humans can't be just pigeons ?
Humans run free meals home, religion based
Hunger is secondary, religion gets one free meal
Hunger does not unite, religion uses them for riots
Hunger for food is turned into hunger for blood
Let human hunger learn from Pigeons
Be concerned with grain, indifferent to donors religion
Yearn to see a Pigeon in Human
Wonder, can Human not replace Pigeon, as symbol of Peace?
