A curious voice...

"What happened?"
"Why are these two inside?"

Twin coconuts with heads shaved
are taking a break...
resting in homely environs.

Outside, the hungry crows,
noisy mynahs and hopping babblers,
foraging with their sharp beaks,
are ready to tunnel holes
to take their fill of scoops of
delicious coconut water.

The familiar squirrel quartet,
their tails swaying,
peeping through the foliage overhead
want their share too.

Many many tailed vistors,
roaming around the green patch,
are left wondering...
where is the
mid-morning snack accompaniment
they had spied yesterday?

Inside...
the twin coconuts
used to the intermingled,
chirruping and cawing notes,
now listen to ring tones.
