I was about to leave for some house chores, and while I was on my towards garage - I saw a pigeon. Now, if you have read any of my posts, you will realize one thing common in all: there is this "Peace 🕊️". Yes, it is a pigeon. And, like any other bird, I envy this beautiful creature the most. The biggest reason behind it is the freedom attached to it. Though, our national poet attributed "Shaheen (Falcon)" to boost the youth moral; I still prefer pigeon over any bird.
Back to the garage, I saw a pigeon; I saw freedom. I felt overjoyed. I ran for my phone which was on charge, wishing this creature does not go away. Within few seconds, I was back, and luckily, it was still enjoying the moments. Opened my camera, clicked it without adjusting anything. Because, I knew these creatures are loyal to only one thing and that is freedom.
Beautiful, isn't it? Only option is to acknowledge it.
Currently, I am in Multan - famously known as the City of Saints - and it is full of pigeons. If one goes to the shrines, one will easily catch tons of these. And then there are those who will cage them. No offense, but those humans deserve to be caged as well. Biased to the chores for freedom.
Not to make it a political debate. I clicked another shot.
This time tried to get bit closer. But, I guess I took the wrong step, and it flew away. Now that I am looking at these pictures, I realized that it already had its eyes on me.
As in Urdu, there is a classical line: "Kabootar ja, ja, ja; pehla pyaar ka pehla khat sajan ko de aaa."
"O pigeon, fly away and deliver my very first love letter to my bloved."

Peace 🕊️
