Have You Heard

All windows of my home are having the mosquito net Though the mosquito menace will be bearable More mosquitoes throng outside when daylight is set Mosquitoes thronging in night will not be considerable A lizard used to come regularly during the night I used to worry as he don't get prey considerably Also I wonder when he absents in day, tho' time is right It is hard to feed or groom a lizard suitably With lot of concern, I used to watch I yearn to tell him in his own language As more prey waits for him in day, to catch But I curse myself as I fail to engage The bedroom window is tightly fitted Yet, the lizard manages to go inside and outside Lack of his feed lead me to feel regretted So I sincerely wish to be his aide or guide What's the use of my knowing half dozen language when I am unable to speak to this lizard? With this thought, at times sleep get a blockage Oh dear lizard! My lamentations, have you heard? Copyrights reserved
