Birds Are Better To People

See the birds, migrating to long distance                                                                                                                     To plan for a life time instance

To breed and to feed the newborn                                                                                                                                            As if they have sworn

In the healthy atmosphere of the world                                                                                                                            Against every odd, as bold

To lay a healthy foundation, for the next generation                                                                                                       After adhering to all precaution

Mankind does not do such novel plan                                                                                                                                   For the welfare of the next clan

Lady delivers child wherever she live                                                                                                                                     Child struggles to strive and to survive

Mankind does not take serious care                                                                                                                             Concern for the future, became rare

Rather, mostly very casual                                                                                                                                      Though this trend is now usual

Lessons to learn from birds are ample                                                                                                                                  As birds are better to people!
