                      Flutter flutter! I hover around
                      Happy and full of zest
                      Clutter! Clutter! I make a mess
                      As I gather twigs for my nest

                      Gooter goo! Gooter goo!
                      I keep your bad luck at bay
                      I am a pigeon-spirited parent like you
                      When my babies coo all day

                      I was your earliest and first friend
                      Helping you send letters and messages
                      But you forgot me soon
                      With growing technology and ages

                      You find me merry go round
                      ‘Make no sound’ you tell me
                      But I don’t complain about the city’s concrete.
                      I am peace loving. Don’t judge me
