He would kill and eat their baby birds the songbirds seem to know <br />So they do their best their very best to frighten off the crow <br />Their babies from such an awful fate they risk their lives to save <br />They even mob the bigger bird they are so very brave <br />In Nature as in the Human World the strongest seem to rule <br />But in Nature's World to kill to eat should not be seen as cruel <br />A sense of cruelty as such birds or animals do not feel <br />A smaller thing is nothing more to them than just a meal <br />The songbirds are chirping loudly a crow to their nest nearby <br />They even chirp and peck at him as around him they do fly <br />But he is unfazed by them where he is perched he stay <br />And from their territory he refuses to fly away <br />For a crow a young nestling is a tasty morsel for to eat <br />And I like millions of other human beings too enjoy the taste of meat.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/parental-love/
