Nest
NEST
Tiny red bellied birds
Busy building a nest
on an electricity transformer !
The couple
Use rubbish of nearby
Cable factory
Pease of wires, cables
different sizes, and shapes
wing its way
Trapping in the sharp beaks
Irritable noise alarmed…
The couple
Exhaustedly
Sat a while on a wire, looking around
A little lad watching curiously
Asked,
What you funny birds do there!
She bird replied with a sorrowful mew
Because,
You’re voracious, merciless
And
Destroyed our lovely habited!!
