Parrot Poem by Suresh Kumar EK

When breeze has softly touched me
I could feel what I really need
I had begged for love and care
But no one was there to give away them
I had tried to escape from loneliness
But nothing was there I failed
I had smiled and waved a lot
But no one was there to give back
I had cried and lamented a lot
But no one was there to console
I had pained and suffered a lot
But no one was found to nurse me
I had shared and served a lot
But no one was there to listen to me
Now the time came, I gained it
A beautiful parrot came to me
Flutter its wings above my head
Hide an innocent smile on the face
Now I could feel what I need
The breeze has softly touched me
