Battery and Hawk

Hawk wearily flaps his wings,
He uses them to fly,
But today he was wearing
Old and very heavy Battery.

"Why do I need this Battery?" -
Hawk thought, but it was too late.
Under weight he fell to the ground,
And animals looked at him with sympathy.

Animals said: "Dear Hawk,
Why do you need this Battery?
Better find yourself a pair,
Make a nest and find peace!"

But Hawk found another target,
He took to the sky again
And continued his flight
With Battery on the back.

However, he continued to doubt,
Why does he need this Battery.
So without finding an answer,
Hawk disappeared in high clouds.

And since then, high in the sky,
Hawk flies back and forth,
And sometimes falls to the ground,
When he get too tired.

And every time Hawk falls,
Animals say that it's an accident,
But Hawk knows that the reason is heavy Battery,
Which is given to him for his grave sins.
