A Morning Memoir: A Feathery Altercation
Today, during the serene moments of prayer time, I found myself standing in the ground, enveloped in the usual morning tranquility. The calm was suddenly pierced by a loud chirping that drew my attention. I turned to see two birds locked in a fierce quarrel, clutching each other with their paws and beaks, their constant cries filling the air.
The scene quickly escalated as three or four more birds joined the fray, turning the squabble into what resembled a gang fight among street children. I felt like a curious woman enjoying a neighbourhood brawl, captivated by the unfolding drama. As I stood there, I began to imagine the reasons behind their clash—was it over food, a love triangle, unrequited affection, territorial disputes, or a struggle for supremacy within their group?
Soon, another teacher arrived, drawn by the commotion. We exchanged amused glances, united in our shared fascination with the birds altercation. The birds, undeterred by our presence, continued their battle, moving from place to place but never losing intensity.
Eventually, fatigue seemed to take its toll on the feathery combatants. They paused, standing still while chirping at each other in what appeared to be a final exchange of words. Slowly, the noise began to fade, and one by one, they dispersed, each going their separate way.
As the last bird flew off, the ground returned to its peaceful state, leaving behind the memory of an unexpectedly lively and refresh full morning.
