Rainbird Poem by Upendra Majhi

Rainbird

Rating: 5.0


A small bird flew from peepal branch
to the red leaf tree branch,
when very big rain drops fell in full view,
nay, they were couple,
only one sat on leafless black branch,
while seated even, its tailwing was fully open,
like the palmleaf fan!
it was taking all drops on its open tailwings
and shedding these in one flap.
For life was not to fly away from rain
it was not sitting still even for a second,
sat facing east, facing west, north, south,
it was a marvel of nature.
