aphrodite songs
nesting in our feathered grass
feeding young in eaves

Poet’s Note: Sparrows are messengers of the Greek Goddess of Love, Aphrodite. Cape Town, SA, is heavily populated with the Cape Sparrow ~ I’m surrounded by them. Cute, fast birds who love community & wake me at sunrise everyday, winter or summer !
