The truth is always bitter
don't expect it to glitter
the striped ones understand
the ones with feathers get the strand
then why do we, most intelligent of all
till then strong, when reached fall?
because one day, there will come a crack in the coon
stop panicking when its too soon
for out will come one so beautiful
be it any type, dutiful
because one day, every cuckoo flies the nest
that's how the law of nature exists
the ones who fed might see it as a break of trust
but that flying is a one of must
you might shed tears and feel fear
bu do realize that one day you'll have to let go of the gear
Such a lovely poem!! Captures the essence of life and indeed a must read fir every parent!
