Title chosen 'To Fly'
Contest by Edward Ibeh
At early dawn solitude
surrounds all around.
Morning music starts prelude.
Shortly Sun will glow on east point in the sky.
boosting up a bird to fly.
The mother bird can fly high,
even it keeps a keen eye
on its nestling in the nest
taking rest
sitting indolent with half closed eyes.
dormant desire : when to fly !
Little birdie seeks comfort in cosy nest,
staying close to mother's breast.
also being aware of rising Sun doen't care at all.
Baby waits for mother’s call.
Red Sun comes up to bring
shiny rays falling on birdie's wing ,
alerting the drowsy fledgling.
Mild warmth thawed sloth
Snappy vigor came forth
Wings outstretching sharp
as bright morning Sun is up !
Mother bird descends diving profound
calling, whistling making shrill sound,
Little birdie flaps its wings
It responds with sweet chirping
Mother and baby swooped
Both reached the ground.
Mother puts its beak in hurry
On tender neck of cute birdie
with ardent ardor
in fervent fervour.
Sun feels proud to shower energy ray
Bird and chirpy birdie flew away.
It's the birdie's first try
feeling frolic to fly.
