Analysis of The caged bird.



The caged bird.

Two village Lads were fighting
over a bird,which is encaged.
The elder wanted to free it
but the younger wanted to keep it.

Their mother noticed that.
Then interfered the matter.
Scolded the elder.

The elder one didn't want to go to school.
Very often became furious
and did act of mischievous.

The younger one was obidient.
Was very calm and cool
and was regular at school.

The mother was annoyed.
So she sent the elder to her brother,
to make his life better.

The boy came to maternal uncle's house,
in a big city
but the free bird lost his entity.

He was encaged.
Couldn't cope up with condition.
 In school he couldn't keep his attention.

So one rainyday he escaped,
from his maternal uncle's cage,
to reach his village.

But couldn't.
He was cought.
Then was scolded,beaten,what not!

Then the boy,
was inflicted with high fever,
and fly ever.........forever.
