hop-pe-dy hop, a sparrow in a hedge
safe, small, secluded
who didn’t even know she had wings to fly

tweet-e-dy tweet
a song heard, whilst 
the singer unseen

‘kra kra’
a finger pointing to the sky
a nudge so gentle it hurt
to stay

zoom zoom
a hummingbird’s buzz and 
joy, sweetness awaits outside

‘take to the skies with us, mom!
we promise you won’t fall!
you were made to take flight,
after all.’
