Pigeons and owls

Pigeons flap to stay safe as they land,
Owls glide and fly and sit and stand.

Pigeons peck at grains all day long,
Owls hunt at night with talons strong.

Ps race all day carrying gossip around.
Os are wise, they do not make a sound.

Ps are spotted at every corner and nook,
Os live in solitude, you'll have to look.

All Ps ever did was return to the master,
But Os could stay away from the plaster.

The problem is that Ps are growing today,
And Os are walking the extinction way.

We all belong to the family of humans, like birds,
Will we learn the lessons beyond these words?
