Homing Bird Poem by Pradip Chattopadhyay

Homing Bird

Rating: 5.0


I have been to verdant hills
watch moonrise on sea at gloam
nothing compares to what it feels
when I am back to my home.

Have trekked faraway mountain pass
caravaned on rolling desert
gone to icy heights where grows no grass
coming home I found my heart.

When travel bug bites my feet
eyes beg for the unseen shore
I wander far but soon retreat
beckons me sweet home's door.

I roam the unknown in wanderlust
weary of the cramped furlong
but end of day in twilight dust
feel the home is where I belong.

Yes, home is our haven where we feel most comfortable.... After each trip and each wandering, when we are back home, it is such a relief and joy.... Like birds that return to their nests after a day's flight, a homely person longs for his home. Unfortunately many houses no more have that warmth that people prefer to flee from its roof... A great write!
