Me-The Confined Bird

A bird sings.. mawkish
Sings and dances smooth
She... by doing so 
has naturally
forgotten her world.

Soars high upwards
aims to touch moon
but sadly can't..
falls back in nest

the bird is
unable 
to achieve

her dreams..
being

"leashed".

This is sadly beautiful Deepa...the innocent desires of a bird that wishes to fly free but cannot and is compelled to sing melodies amid her pain. Lovely portrayal! Congratulations on your win :)

Hello V.Deepa, I do not like it when I see a bird in a cage. I prefer to see them fly freer. They belong in the trees. Enjoy your day my friend.

Hi Ma'am. Yes even I don't like birds nor any human being confined.Each one has to enjoy his/her freedom. This poem is in point of few girls who are undergoing lot of restrictions in their home or society.The bird is personified to a girl here. Have a great day.:-)
