Eaglture...Story of a Transformation

By Aalam Zaada | Eloquence | 3 Oct 2025


Hi-Fi Birdie

But an ordinary one

Just an Eagle...But Golden one

Dreams so high.. He fly 

Himalaya...seem small

He spread his wings

making wide rivers shy

Sun looked at him

Admiring

His golden wings

Like fire at night

In deep dark woods

Calling the lost

to find the way

Flying so high 

In vast blue sky

Not looking down

Dwelling into unknown

Metamorphoses took over

Transformed him

into some Heavenly Creature

He dreamed too long

Flying in unknown

The Wings of desire

Made him think 

Like a dead meat eater

A complete take over

He dared to desire

Mighty blue reflection

With all the lanterns

moon & the Sun

And far from them

All the stars In awe

All the planets saw 

the ambition

Of a soul

sinking in a deep Black hole

Then the silence shattered

Sky itself whispered

He must look down

He must turn back

Then the roaring wind

Pushed him bit down

Pushy air made him loose

Some golden feathers

looking down 

for his loss

Couldn't find 

But a void

So vast

breathing stopped

The Vulture tried

You can go High

So fly.... O High!

Little birdie almost bald

Looked towards the Sun

And then looked down

Sunshine helped

And make him Saw

He was an Eagle

With a Vultures shadow

Bald n weak 

He almost freaked

Realizing what's done

There was no fun

But a loathing shame

A promise he made

Never fly too High

A soothing calm

Like a mothers womb

Like a silent pray

in the wee hours of night

Reaching far in the sky

He got His vision

And the Ego died

Blurry vision got clear 

No vulture in the sight

Just a curious Eagle 

BUT

Not an ordinary one

Or a Golden one

With the Fire of guilt

His wings rebuild

Ambitions grew

Without any Pride

Looking down

Flying calm

Feeling Not So High

Realizing his gift

He turned towards Earth 

Green plants... Tall trees

Bit surprise they looked

A Pheonix descending

Down to Earth

Blue Earth felt warmth

Spreading her arms

Welcoming His own

She looked at the sky

With thankful eye...
