Falcon & Crow Poem by Freeyad Ibrahim

by Freeyad Ibrahim

It is said when the crow reaches the top of the mountain
falcon leaves,
Not because he is weak
but because he perceives
that it is no longer a peak

Note that the only bird that dares
to peck an eagle is the crow
the only bird that the danger bears
but compared this one flies low

He sits on his back and snaps his neck,
But the eagle does not respond,
Does not fight, continues flight
It does not waste time
or energy with the crow
It just spreads its wings
and starts soaring into the sky
high, to the extreme height
The higher it gets,
the more difficult it is for the crow
to breathe
Then the crow falls due to lack of oxygen
Dies beneath

Stop wasting time with crows,
Just take them to your height
and let them fall down!
No crackdown,
No fight
