A Castle Sparrow

The sparrow fixed me With a quizzical eye I am sure it knew All that I thought As it hopped with glee I lifted a finger The sparrow jumped upon it It chirruped to me I understood finally That a bird Who gives it's heart Will sing Merrily Every day That castle sparrow Came to my window I let it in Let it play I loved it so The way to a sparrows' heart Is to sit still Let it come to you Of its' own free will A castle sparrow Flew around the room Singing Lifting my spirits, so low I thought of nothing else Than to see a tiny bird Filled with joyous glow I brought little treats every day For a castle sparrow That I love to watch, sing and play It fixed me with a quizzical eye As if it knew All of me My very own sparrow I loved it too
