Parrot
P - Perched on a fruit bearing tree you will see me
A - Attracting everyone with my alluring colours
R - Ripe fruits are my all time favourite
R - Red chillies too I love to eat
O - Often I imitate human voice
T - Talking my pictures is great fun
That was past.
Now I live in a cage, a lonely life,
I can't move much, cannot fly,
no one to talk to, no family,
I wish I was not so beautiful,
I wish I couldn't imitate humans...
Please set me free. I beg of you.
With the coming of corona,
you would have hopefully,
understood my plight.
At least now set me free!
One thing is for sure,
if man doesn't set free all in his captivity,
he will be caged in his house forever.
