The Sparrow’s Bath

An Envy of Freedom

When spring softly rings, And a sparrow takes a bath In a small pot in my garden, I envy her freedom and her joy.

I long to feel the warmth of the Sun, To soak in the beauty of the flowers, To splash in the water like the sparrow, And forget all my worldly desires.

I long for the simplicity of her carefree flight, For the joy that comes with true inner sight, And I wonder if my concrete world is worth, The price of my own soul and its dearth

I’m trapped in this endless cycle, Of wanting more than what I need, And the sparrow’s wings seem to mock me, As I rush around with unbridled speed.

I wish I could break free from this cycle, And embrace a simpler way of life, To find joy in the little things, And to let go of my endless strife.

I see the washing sparrow and stop for a while, Her feathers glistening in the sun’s warm smile, And for a moment, I forget my stress and strife, But I can’t stop, I must move forward with my life.

I rush to the offices where sparrows are painted on the walls, Their tiny forms a reminder of nature’s calls, But in this concrete jungle, it’s hard to feel alive, And I know I’m also painted in the absurd life.

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders, As I struggle to meet my never-ending quotas, And the sparrow’s carefree life seems so far, Lost in the noise of the city’s busy bazaar.
