In The Cage

Lonely life you have given me Why you kept me in captivity You wrenched me from the jungle Branches of pines and cedars I miss I watch my flockmates whirling in the sky Lovely to see them flying in unison Singing and perching on the trees Weaving nest with grass and twigs And popping food into little ones beaks You look at the cage and admire my beauty You gave me bars only to bite No space to spread my little wings And no river banks to preen With pleasure you feed me seeds and water But you never knew I enjoy berries and worms Morning you open eyes with my squeaks And you love to hear me singing You never knew it's the cry for my love mate Set me free let me fly Wish to fly miles and Miles.
