Sparrow resting

Caring dove

A soft sparrow sits on cups 

that happen to be resting together , without falling 

supporting each other 

standing still 

standing tall 

without the tea 

With each other and a sparrow from the sky 

sitting her little tender twig like feet there 

something she might not be used to 

being there 

instead of in a branch of a tree 

where she often lands 

yet today they are outside 

and decides to land those little feet there this time 

looks like a friendly place 

feeling ok and safe 

and they let her stay 

thinking she is friendly too

        My friend, there’s a quiet kindness running through this…from the cups holding each other to the sparrow finding a place to land. It feels like a moment of trust, small but meaningful. It lingers in a peaceful way. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
