A song bird in a cage sets all heaven a rage

Soul-filling words...indeed a divine write

You expressed sentiments I spoke of just this morning, we have no right to cage lovely birds for just our own enjoyment. I have a garden full of birds which give me pleasure and they are free to leave when they wish. I however do agree with Alison as to length of poem. Keep writing poems of conscience, that; s what poetry is for.

Your subject matter is both beautiful and important. Caged birds are prisoners who have committed no crime. As to your poem. It begins well (like your use of the word 'plod' in the first line) but I think the poem is too long. If you leave out the last three stanzas your poem will make its point much more powerfully. Itemized lists of names may show your knowledge, but do little to enhance your poem. I'd end it on that excellent line: 'And dry out their invisible tears in the fresh breeze of the freedom' Remember, in poetry, less is more. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I like your vivid imagery and am delighted that you now appreciate birds@ freedom.

a watcher who once caged the birds, now prefers sighting the birds in freedom. it is a wonderful poem with good imagery.

I wholeheartedly support your wisdom for freedom of birds. As another poet has said God made them to be free and fly. Maybe because humans can't fly they are jealous! ! Your imagery is very beautiful and your knowledge amazing. Glorious writing. 10 Karin Anderson

The Creator gave birds wings so they can fly freely and gave us their bird song so that we can rejoice with their flight.Lovely poem...I like birds too but my birds are free flying garden visitors.A ten from me

One has to read it twice or thrice to feel the sincerity of the author in regards to birds, to feel how a bird watcher observed the fowl kingdom, its habitat coupled with lovely verdure about, the virgin forest, beauty of the faura. After the read you will find yourself smiling happily, satisfied that everything around you is well taken care of. That's the essence of this creative piece of work and of course the very talented writer we have here.

Nicely expressed feelings and description of the birds' plight... Cheers. Subroto
