Can I Be Your Sparrow?
A sparrow is a simple bird
small, delicate
Easily forgotten
But it’s also gentle, loving
something to never be forgotten
It may be small
but all the better to hold to your heart.
Give it the chance, and it will warm you up
And make a nest there
Where it will stay forever
Its nowhere near as graceful as the swan
With pure white feathers and a pearly complexion
Dazzling wings and a gentle glide across the water
Rather, its small, clumsy
Yet close to the heart
If you let me, I can be too
There are others more glamourous than I
More pretty, more perfect
But if you let me
I’ll always fly back home to you
Let’s turn this tree into our home
It may be small, but it’s ours
And I, your gentle sparrow
Small, but with the biggest heart
Wings always open for you
