A Dialogue with My Soul | Durgesh Verma
“I’ve faith in my feathers
which give the ability to fly worldwide
with my 6/6 eyesight.
My light weighted skeleton helps me to hop-
to plash in the cool shallow river
and to prance on the tree top.
Our species live in the flock
which is considered a form of culture.
I’m completely shocked to see man’s nature like the vulture.
I migrate on great distance
without having any hindrance.
But you’ve merely made range.
I have a toothless beak to chirp and to sing.
But you harshly cut down
my wings in a single blink!
You’ve put me in the cage
& have snatched my part of sunshine.
May I know the reason for such heinous crime!”
