Bird 10 - The Smiling Sparrows Comments

Rating: 5.0

I get up every morning to musical notes, so pleasing!
Sweet chirpy, cheep sounds like teasing,
I know they are tiny, tiny house sparrows,
Soulful birds that bond to sooth human marrows.

Hi, Geeta! I like this. It reminds me of songs in Shakespeare plays. The picture looks like what are called Common Sparrows. But we know the fallacy of thinking anything common, yes? Down the street from me in a neighbor’s front yard is a tall Yucca, and in its large crown these sparrows nest year round. Sometimes as I pass they make their presence known in their communal chirping. Glen

Hi Glen, So good to know that this poem reminds you of the songs in Shakespeare plays. You are right. There is nothing common. Every being, i believe, is a special creation of God. Happy to know that you live in a place inhabited by sparrows and other birds and can hear their communal chirping. That lovely, Glen. And a big thanks!

It’s a fascinating poem dear madam! I am delighted the way you have captured the scene… very natural and comical expression! Felt the melody within. I would love to quote a few fascinating lines from your poem, “What a sprightly dance of joyous splendor/I smile at these brownies with wonder/They smile back in united chorus blender/I have made my day with sweet surrender! Thanks a lot for sharing…10
