When Watching Sparrows

Sparrows

hop around,

in sync with

God’s heartbeat—

dancin’ the dance

of Joy.

Pecking the ground,

turnin’ around,

eatin’ insects, seeds,

& blooms—

nurtured by food

they did not plant.

(While humans worry,

lest they starve,

’cause the store next door

is closed—

and they ran out of milk

at breakfast.)
