On a Sparrow and a Cock Sparrow

*On a Sparrow and a Cock Sparrow* by Shahzad Ahmed Sheikh

I do watch and see them picking, sipping;

I do admire them flying and twittering;

I do praise my Lord Who mastered them in diving and dipping;

I do observe their benign clustering.

They never falter in understanding;

They never betray and flounder;

They are garrulous, yet contending;

Their circling around is a sheer splendour.

They tend their little one;

I wonder at their coordination;

They are unwavering and hardly undone;

I always stand in perfect fascination.

We all need to learn a lesson;should live with enviable dignity,

Yes, small birds do mould us towards elevated soberity.
