The Birds are in the Sky
--------------------------------------------

The Birds!
They are in the Sky;
May be in search of something;
That they lost;
Yesterday or day before;
Last night during sleep;
Probably; their dreams;
Their hopes or belongings;
Or even the feels;
They nourish;
The dignity; integrity;
Or their inborn music;
Their intrinsic flute;
The celestial Note!

2.
I can muse a humming!
Is it from the horizons!
From the depth of my In;
The Sanctum Sanctorum;
The x-over Infinite;
The Conundrum!

3.
The Birds!
Continuing their flight;
Round and round;
As though they are annoyed!
Chirping;
As though perplexed;
Or frightened by a hunter's gun.

4.
Clear the Sky as the mind;
Filled with good hopes;
Sovereign the the strings;
Knitting the solemn veil'
Keeping the Self so
Virgin pure;
 Musical; esoteric Sure;
The not yet explored Ever!

5.
 The Birds!
Why are they not returning;
To the Nest!
I pity;
Their helplessness!

6.
O my Brother!
Are we the dreadful;
The responsible!
The merciless feller;
The devastator!
