A Little Sparrow





SPATZIE





A little sparrow small and bright,

Soars through the sky at first light.

He tweets to all,

And brings cheer to all with every call.


His body is bright and brown,

With grey streaks on his crown.

Eats grains with his cone shaped bill,

And flies over the rounded hill.


He bathes in dust,

That is found on the Earth’s crust.

And splash around in the water,

Which creates chatter.


He plays a hero

To woo his female sparrow.

They often form a bond

Which lasts lifelong.


They build their nest close to the ground,

With grass and twigs found.

They breed in colonies

And are always together.


Spotted greenish white eggs glow in their nest,

Only for a fortnight they are at rest.

Parents take care of the hatchling

Which makes a cackling!


Many little sparrows small and bright,

Soars through the sky at first light.

They tweet to all,

And bring cheer to all with every call.
