Sunny Sparrow Roost

While whittling away, Household tasks today, Sparrows peacefully perched by my window, Sunning on golden Cyprus, as they will tomorrow. Betwixt bird feeder flights, They absorb warmth of sunlight, Until seed needs lead to silly squabbles, Luckily the extent of their troubles. Back and forth the tiny flock follows its leader. A chilly day makes them eager. Lo, one perches on the window ledge, Peeking inside to check me out. Disappointed, for I’m only dashing about. Oh, what idyllic days they spend, Better than I, for all my good intent! M. Renee Taylor 12-3-15
