Birds are nature’s original poems. They add beauty to our Earth; otherwise, the Earth would have been charmless without them. They sing equally for the rich and poor. Birds remind us of the different seasons of the year, the advent of agriculture, festivals, and help in the propagation of plants. Their songs give solace to the weary soul. Different birds have different behaviours, colours, calls, and songs. Birds also experience their own sufferings, mostly from insecurity due to enemies and shortages of food. But unlike human beings, they sing and dance amidst their sufferings. Even after death, the bodies of birds become food for other organisms. Humans, on the other hand, either bury or burn the dead body. Man can learn many lessons from birds. There are thousands of beautiful poems written about birds by different poets all over the world. This poem is blended with the sorrows and happiness of birds that the author closely witnessed. The author asks himself many questions related to the relationship between man and birds. This poem would form a useful source of knowledge for new generations.
