Cocks are there in country side <br />To give us wake up calls in mornings <br />In cities we have our alternatives <br />Cell phone alarms and land line rings <br />And the magnificent mech.bird called <br />The Cuckoo Clock <br /> <br />The cuckoo comes out spreading its wings <br />Sings the song of Six in the morning <br />With the sweet note of cuckoo's call <br />I wake up and get ready for my work <br /> <br />Once I forgot to put the battery on time <br />At six one morning the bird sank five <br />And stood there still with the wings spread <br />Peacefully and faithfully for a treaty <br /> <br />I blamed myself and my laziness <br />for not feeding the faithful creature <br />On time <br />From that day onward I never repeated the mistake <br />I always feed my best companion Mech.Bird on time <br />Sometimes when it calls it sounds like thank Q thank Q <br />I thanked the punctual bird for teaching me punctuality <br /> <br />One who has the Cuckoo Clock in his home <br />Is the Lucky guy in this world<br /><br />KAVIN CHARALAN<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-cuckoo-clock-2/
