City Sparrow

A new dawning And yawning Before my eyes clear I hear The chirps from the birds Those pleasing words As they near my sill Then a tap with their bill Busily going about their business In alertness Their presents is consoling As it was time to get rolling Their sounds seem to blend with modern life Our daily strife And I wondered how they could acclimate to their surroundings How challenging While ten ton cars rush down the streets Our city sparrow’s sits and eats While they are within inches of this fury Upon the trees they sit with glory They build their nests in unnoticed places While our world embraces And their purpose is clear For here They bring cheer To the city streets
