Walking along the old river path
With the warmth of the sun fresh and new,
I saw a robin in a puddle having a bath
To the sound of a distant cuckoo.
It was calling for a mate among the trees,
It's lonely call, it's particular cry, I hear
As the sound traveled along with the breeze,
A sound so loud, strong and clear.
It comes when the dandelions flower
And the bluebells paint the earth blue
As the earth regains its warm power
To make nature fresh and new.
The cuckoo is a sound I love to hear
It makes me smile and want to rejoice
And brings with it warmth and cheer. This
Wandering bird with its wonderful voice.

A call or sweet sound of a Cuckoo is a sign of the arrival of Spring. There are a variety Cuckoos in India though all do not have sweet voice.
