Chirp

Chirp chirp 
the sparrow let out
Hiding in bushes 
so hard to see 
But if I
were a worm
Or bug 
of his choice
I am sure 
I would spy him
Beyond all the noise 
Quiet now 
he must see me
Human I am 
no fly or bee
Chirp chirp 
the sparrow let out
Flying away 
from curiosity 
Shame on me 
I got to close
Interrupting his hunt 
with my big nose

Enjoy the moment there are no sparrows here in Phoenix But the other day I saw a vulture.

That’s so much bigger and scarier than a sparrow, thank you Kelli
