Little bird <br />perched on <br />The highest branch <br />Of a leafless tree <br />Keeps a watch <br />On the neighborhood <br />Knows all people <br />Their activities <br />Their successes <br />Their failures <br />And troubles <br />And so on. <br /> <br />The black bird <br />Sitting on <br />The top of the pole <br />Constantly looks <br />At the traffic <br />On the road <br />What passers do <br />Where people go <br />Who's law abiding <br />Who violates the rules <br />All recorded as <br />Retina image. <br /> <br />The hawk flying <br />High in the sky <br />Could locate a rodent's <br />Slightest movement <br />Down on the ground <br />Keeps mental record <br />Of freshness of air <br />Rivers and lakes <br />Trees and hills <br />Sky view of buildings <br />Ways of people <br />Their triumphs <br />And tribulations. <br /> <br />One must have <br />A bird's eye view <br />To spot the problems <br />And identify the needy <br />With a careful watch <br />And judicious thought <br />Try to make it possible <br />To extend to all <br />Who need some help <br />Warmth of the heart <br />And stretch out <br />A helping hand.<br /><br />Tirupathi Chandrupatla<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bird-s-view/
