Chirping

As if it was just yesterday
Whenever I sat down to study near that window, I would open the window,
I would see sparrows playing among themselves in the garden in front,
chirping..

One of them would often fly and come to me.
As if it was waiting for me or my window to open.
Then it would hop to my table
and then sit on top of that table clock like every day
It would talk to it

As if it wanted to stop the time,
wanted to tell me something.
Even today, whenever I sit down to write something on that table,
I open the window, and wait for it to come

But now it does not come, never comes, and neither do I hear any sound of ‘chirping..chirping..’ from the front
Even the garden in front is not visible now
I keep forgetting that we humans have destroyed their homes and have built our own homes

Thank you so much for reading. Have a great day 😊 🙏 @vikbuddy
