(Celebrating the Month of LOVE)
There I saw you,
Here I felt you,
Now that I know you..

I want you
I have you.
I feel you
I need you........

Color my life..
With all those hue,
Which are mine
And of course
YOURS...!!

There I saw you,
Here I felt you,
Now that I know you..

We are the Orioles..!!

We are the ORIOLES...
We don't live in the poles,
You spot us in woody countries...
Which have lot many trees.

*****

A bright golden yellow bodied bird
With black color in wings and tail,
A conspicuous black streak through the eye.
I am the male with a great show off
More brighter and yellower
Like the Turmeric....

*****

My counterpart is duller and greener.
As she is the female.
Nature created me that way,
so that you crazy men can watch me
Nature made me so
For a better pay off.

*****

Arboreal is our lifestyle
Food is insects,fruits and berries
So you can stop by a banyan,peepal or fig tree
Any berry tree either..
But thats should be with yummy fruits.
And as you move your eyes ..
There you spot me, my partner..
Spring is my favorite time,
And so the most probability
To spot me.

You spot us in woody countries...
Which have lot many trees,
We are the ORIOLES...
We don't live in the poles!!
