We Are Like Migratory Birds Poem by EU STRESS

We Are Like Migratory Birds



We are like migratory birds
Who have come upon this earth
From some unknown habitat
For ages and ages
To complete the cycle of life and death.

In enormous flocks
We fly across the oceans of time,
Pre-destined by instinct
To land upon a particular terrain,
Build our niche, procreate, nurture off springs,
And glide back to our original abode
Only to wait for the next season to arrive.

Inspired by the original complete version of 'Dakini' from the album 'Sky Kisses Earth' by Prem Joshua.

So much for their money That jolts our economy They have overstayed their welcome But they'll soon be gone. To their northern home. How different from migratory birds And other animals responding to reproductive urges. These are returning to homes of choice Where they''ll not mate and reproduce Instead they'll only pollute and foul the nest Until next fall when they will do their best To resume their migration To a place in the sun Where they can inhabit distant shores And prolong their life as eternal bores. s
