hey, Mr peacock

HEY! My little friend! 
Where are you going? 
What is it that you are looking for? 
How is it that you blend wherever you go? 
In the park, during rains, in the sanctuary, on the roof. 
With your majestic crown, dancing feathers and 
A lovely coat 
Do you know?? 
When you spread your wings; the world 
Breaks into cheers, 
The touch of joy and the magic you carry, 
The awe-struck moments you leave us with;
Catching a glimpse of you – the royal you.
You with your elegance, your grace, your cocky gaze. 
The bounties you carry on your back; 
Casually and gently – makes me wonder: 
Why do we humans always rile and rant 
When we have hardly anything to carry?
