An egg is hatched <br />The fledgling crawls out of its shell <br />Unable to see and unable to fly <br />Limps around in pitch black darkness <br /> <br />Mother bird feeds it with fondness <br />Not only food but also love <br />Lots of sunrises and sunsets <br />Accrues into days of inaction <br /> <br />Wishes of the mother winnows into wings <br />Waning fears with the vigor of nature <br />Trials into air under <br />The paragon of love’s care <br /> <br />D-day has come <br />Taking off the plane <br />Detours the fledgling flying far away <br />Forgetting the mother!<br /><br />rajagopal haran<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/withering-wings/
