She whispered this to me softly, "I know the birds really love you" When we two rubbed shoulders As if it was by chance, when All eyes were busy on other things.
"Were you spying on me, may I ask?" I faigned hurt, just to add a needed drama, In fact I was glad she had found out a thing, That stands me apart in a crowd like this.
"Strolling in the park, I chanced upon you, And curiously watched how the birds Thronged on branches under which you sat, I guess you are an ace player of chess Who knows what to move how and when"
With curious eyes I peered at her and Felt wonder;she knows something About me that I wasn't really aware of Though I had enough reasons to suspect it. Though in one thing she went wrong, I never was one believed in secret moves Never was one adept in what, when, how Part of things, but sought mystery That nature brings at every turn!
Weren't birds my best friends I recognized They found something in me that they loved But thought it all so normal a matter, till She found out the esoteric bond we shared.
Perhaps she is right, or the opposite, wrong How much of us is hidden from ourselves I stood undecided, she lets out the secret, "Do you know you have hidden wings?" At that precise moment I find she too has wings.
Bird esoteric bond drama spying. Love mystery secret longing
