Earth Melodies: Listen to the music of the earth

Paramita Mukherjee Mullick
Can you hear the rustle of the leaves?
Can you hear the parrots screeching up above?
Can you hear the elusive nightingale sing in the banyan tree?
It sings of happiness and love.

Can you hear the sunbirds chirping in the palm trees?
Can you hear the circling eagles' shriek?
Can you hear the crows cawing to their heart's content?
So much happiness around, so much peace.

Can you hear the sparrows chirping while bathing in the sand?
Can you hear the colourful butterflies fluttering their tiny wings?
Can you hear the scampering feet of the fluffy squirrels?
Listen to the music of the Earth as nature sings.
