My son Aghaz, shown me with curiosity, <br />Look; birds every moment they drink, <br />They raise their head, <br />Tell me, why is it so? <br /> <br />Lo! They are faithful to Lord, <br />Always singing-merrymaking, <br />They chirp..chirping, <br />Every drop they drunk, they praised, <br />'Thanked to Almighty' <br />Without any grief and anxiety' <br /> <br />Then they are better than us! <br /> <br />You may think so, but it's not true, <br />We are superior to all, <br /> <br />The difference is simple— <br />They are always alert, <br />And we, selfish, careless… <br />love to flirt. <br /> <br />Praise to be Lord and never you giggle, <br />'Cause another name of life is struggle,<br /><br />Aftab Alam<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/we-are-superior-to-all/
