The Tiny Heart

A little sparrow, Chirped and jumped Around his friend Still and cold In hopes of warmth. With every leap, A plea to thrive He turned and twirled. The little sparrow, Seeking help beneath The fading light, Chirped and jumped. (Based on a true event.)

This is so descriptive and so well written in such a creative and engaging manner, so sad the ending too. Felt this. Sending you light always

Great poem - sad, but interesting that a sparrow would do that.
