White Crow! Poem by Ramesh T A

White Crow!

Rating: 3.8


Black crows are common bird everywhere;
Black elephants are common in the forest;
But can you find white crow anywhere?
Or can you find white elephant anywhere?

Is it possible to distinguish between birds
Like the common crow and Nightingale?
Both are of the same colour more or less
But their voices show them in true colours!

How can common and superior varieties
In birds or other species be found anywhere?
Nightingale being superior lays its eggs
In the nest of crows to grow its siblings!

Likewise white crow is called a rare species
But not actually ever found among black crows!

does this imply that, if i got my neighbor's wife pregnant and the neighbor had to raise my offspring, i am superior to my neighbor? ? ? that is a bit of teasing you. i've heard of white elephants and crows though i believe they are called anomalies or 'freaks' of nature. we, in the u.s.a. have at least two kinds of birds who are known to lay eggs in the nests of other species. pretty clever, though lazy, if you ask my! ! ! thanks for sharing. :)
