Sad Cuckoo
Sunday,18th October 2020
Dear cuckoo
why are you sad?
and wear a deserted look
what has shaken your faith?
why are you gloomy?
unhappy
not in the original mood
and not looking good too
where has gone your melody?
that reminded me of the presence of an almighty
you sang so praiseworthily
for the cause of humanity
she remained sad
and did not come out from dead silence
What to do for this cruelty?
people have lost humanity!
They have uprooted trees,
branches and our nests,
we are homeless
with what face to sing!
I felt shyness
and felt sadness too
how to give solace?
with shameless face
you are God's messenger
to provide divine music here,
we are all your fan
don't run away far

Indeed humans should feel ashamed of what they have been doing all through these years and still continuing to do so. Thanks for sharing! Giti Tyagi, Karnal, India, Oct 20,2020

I would like to translate this poem
Cuckoo is God's messenger and the bird should not be sad. The bird should smile and sing. Bird should motivate mind. Cuckoo should express sweet tune. An amazing poem is brilliantly penned.
