Parrot

Birds
by William Wordsworth

Happier of happy though I be,
like them
I cannot take possession of the sky,
Mount with a thoughtless impulse, and wheel there,

One of a mightly multitude whose way

And motion is a harmony and dance

Magnificient.


P.S: The parrot was quite shy and refused to pose for me and hid behind the tree trunk.

That was a quick and good shot. Well taken. I appreciate your spontaneous thought. It is difficult to capture birds. Well done.

@ Balaji - Thanks. :)

@Starry nights - Thanks. I love birds too.

@Alexis - Yes, the bird sure does have attitude. Thanks.

@Jackal - It must be real fun to have parrots at home. Do they speak? When I was in school a friend of mine had a parrot at home and it used to speak really well.
