The first Tweet.....
By prajwal in General Literary | পড়ার জন্য : 343 | পছন্দ: 0
When someone hears "tweet", their mind directly lands on the tittle - tattle stories. The first Tweet is about the lost sound in the deafening city. It's a tale of two similar yet contradictory mornings. Same view, same place, same sunrise, same sky but the feeling was poles apart. One typical morni  বেশি পড়ুন...

I just want to envision you, Like a pleasant dream, That makes me   বেশি পড়ুন...

As the sun rises, we would step out of our houses on our expedition with our squad to catch butterflies in the nearby bush hedges. We played in the mounds of sand in our neighbourhood.
