IF ONLY BIRDS COULD SPEAK


The first and second verses were written on the 29th of December, 2016 by 07:15 PM. The last verse was written prior to the former as the poet explains that he lately discovered the birds that can actually speak but can't convince themselves with the borrowed language. The last verse was written on the 11th of April, 2021 by 05:30 PM.




If only birds could speak 
I'ud join in the feather's anthem
If only birds could speak 
I'ud kiss the heights above
If only birds could speak 
I'ud drive the kites to their homes 
If only birds could speak 
I'ud fly the flies in the sky
If only birds could speak 
I'ud make the best symphony 
I'ud take selfies on cloudy trees 
And I'ud visit the moon at noon 

If only birds could speak
I'ud travel the world before twelve 
I'ud build my hut in space
And my nest on earth I'ud pace 
If only birds could speak
I'ud join the top feeders 
I'ud travel with the best feathers 
And I'ud whisper these to their fathers 

So lately I found the parakeets-
The cockatoos and the grey parrots 
They are good motivational speakers 
But can't convince their fellow feathers
