A day in the life of a sparrow

Bug Mad Girl loves the sparrow family that hang out on our patio, talking to them out of the window and shouting "chap" a lot. So, when her homework this week was to write a poem about something she liked, the sparrows were the obvious choice. She also decided to paint a picture of Daddy sparrow to go with it.

This is what she came up with ....

A day in the life of a sparrow

          by Bug Mad Girl
 

Flapping sparrow flying up high,

Daring sparrow up in the sky,

Playful sparrow swooping low,

Brave sparrow putting on a show.

 

Lonely sparrow on the ground,

Little sparrow looked into a mound,

Lucky sparrow saw a friend,

Happy sparrow played to days end.

Scared sparrow dived straight down,

Helpless sparrow almost drowned,

Soggy sparrow flies away,

To tell his tale another day.

 

Yawning sparrow on a twig,

Wearing his nighttime wig,

Sleepy sparrow tucked up tight,

Dreamy sparrow says goodnight.
