The little bird forgot one day;
Where it kept its twig,
She would need it again one day;
To make her nest more big.
She went about her work all day;
Getting food for the young ,
Happily she did her work ;
And laboured till it was done.
And in her work she did forget;
All about the twig ,
She thought that target had been met,
Her nest was nice and big.
The other birds saw her work;
And mused at her forgetfulness.
They hid her twigs because the shock.
Would surely raise her stress.
There was another silly bird,
Who lacked the tacts of the world.
Who liked to help one and all;
And revelled in the joy unfurled.
She saw the forgetful bird go round;
Oblivious of her loss.
She reminded her of the twig,
Which made the others cross.
They thought that the forgetful bird;
Should’ve paid for her forgetfulness,
Her ugly nest should have fallen down,
Her life should have been a mess.
The helpful bird raised her eyes
And asked, what they would gain.
If the poor bird’s nest got broke,
Or if, she received some pain.
They snubbed and ignored the bird;
For her well meant deed,
For the helpful bird, it mattered not
For peace of mind was her need.
She cared not, for what others thought;
She did not care for their might,
She always listened to her heart
And did what she thought was right.
Wow… Nice
