Return Of A Song Sparrow

With your song,
You return;
I waited long,
With concern.

I’m glad
To see you;
I was sad
When you flew.

You’re back
From your trip;
You’ve a knack—
Winter you skip.

It’s spring,
And you’re here;
When you sing,
You spread cheer.

With your song,
You return;
I waited long,
With concern.

Comment A long waited curiosity has now finished
Because, we shall enjoy, sparrow's song.
All the worries & tention will remove soon
It would better to forget sorrows to belong
Peaceful atmosphere greets in our garden
Bird recognises due to voice, not a throng.
Sweet melody will spread everywhere then
Kulbir is nature's true observer,Am I wrong?
